We added some more information on these agencies since 1995. We also studied on the Gender National Machinery in Japan (The Office of the Gender Equality in the Ministry of the Cabinet) Stetson & Mazur classified the Gender National Machineries of 13 countries (excluding Poland), Type 1 (High influence/ High access), Type 2 (High influence/ Low access), Type3 (Low influence/ High access) and Type 4 (Lowinfiuence/ Low access). We concluded that the Japanese agency is included the Type 4.
