“Request for review” is a system that enables a member to contest a decision/disposition by PMAC.
This system is called the “Request-for- review System.” It aims to promote the observance of a member’s rights and interests in compliance with related laws when such a request is made and to establish the appropriate operation of PMAC.
To achieve the mission stated above, PMAC has installed the Mutual Aid Association Board of Review. PMAC Board of Review consists of 9 members: 3 members representing all PMAC members, 3 members representing the school corporations and 3 members representing the public interest. All members are commissioned by Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology.
If a person has an objection to PMAC’s decision or handling regarding any of the following items, he or she may file a review request in accordance with the Administrative Appeal Act in written or oral form to PMAC Board of Review.
