The local authority (LA) has been involved in planning in the field of health and welfare for the elderly, the disabled and the children in need.In the first year, I conducted a survey on social planning of the social welfare councils which belongs to the private sector, and in the next year, I investigated to the planning for programs of long-term care insurance which is administrated by the LA and the planning for health and welfare of the elderly.The research is constituted of a theoretical study and an empirical one on social welfare planning. Furthermore, the latter is formed of a case study and a statistical one.

In some of cases, interviews to planners of the LA were conducted in process of the survey.Some articles have been already published. They made reference to the results of the research.
