Yutaka Banno ( Japanese 伴 野 豊 , Banno Yutaka ; born January 1, 1961 in Tōkai , Aichi Prefecture ) is a Japanese politician ( DPJ → DFP → DVP ). From 2000 to 2012 and from 2014 to 2017 he was a member of the Shūgiin , the lower house of the Japanese parliament , for the Tōkai proportional representation block (from 2003 to 2005 and from 2009 to 2012 for the 8th constituency of Aichi).

Life

Banno graduated from Nagoya University of Technology in 1983 , where he then went on to graduate school until 1985. Then he became an employee of the state railway , after their privatization and division in 1987, he was taken over by the JR Tōkai , where he later participated in the planning for the Chūō Shinkansen , among other things . In 1994 he left the company to turn to politics. First he worked as the secretary of a Shūgiin MP, from 1995 in the Aichi Prefectural Association of the New Progress Party (NFP).

In the 1996 Shūgiin election , Banno ran for the NFP in the 5th constituency of Aichi, but ended up in third place behind the Democrat Hirotaka Akamatsu and the Liberal Democrat Takehide Kimura . After the dissolution of the NFP from 1998 himself a member of the "new" Democratic Party (DPJ), Banno has been running since 2000 in constituency 8, which he was only able to win in 2003 and 2009, but in 2000 and 2005 won a seat in the Tōkai proportional representation.

In the Democratic Party he was, among other things, Deputy Secretary General (2009), a member of Ichirō Ozawa's shadow cabinet in 2006 (as the “next minister” for land, infrastructure and transport) and in later shadow cabinets as State Secretary for the Environment, in the Shūgiin, among other things, a member of the budget and the Iraq Special Committee. From September 2010 to 2011 (Kan cabinet, 1st and 2nd reshuffle ) he was “Deputy Minister” in the Foreign Ministry , and in autumn 2012 for a few months ( Noda cabinet (3rd reshuffle) ) in the MLIT .

In the Shūgiin election in 2012 , Banno lost his constituency to the Liberal Democrat Tadahiko Itō and also missed re-election in the Tōkai proportional representation. In 2014 he lost the constituency again, but just enough to get 2nd place on the list of Democrats in Tōkai in the proportional representation as the best constituency loser and so to return to parliament. After the Democratic Progressive Party (DFP), the successor party of the DPJ, withdrew from the 2017 election , he did not run for either the Kibō no Tō of Yuriko Koike or the Constitutional Democratic Party of Yukio Edano . Banno achieved his best result since 2009 with 106,625 votes, but was subject to Itō again (Itō 108.47 votes) and was not secured as an independent on any proportional representation list, so he left the Shūgiin. He joined the People's Democratic Party in May 2018, which resulted from the merger of DFP and Kibō no Tō.
