The social welfare services are to be equally offered in the country as the national minimum, but farming and fishing villages where there are many old people, or metropolitan areas where there are many needy people have confronted fiscal pressure, resulting in poor benefit to the residents. On these issues, this study analyzes that the fiscal unequalness caused by the subsidies of the central government in social welfare service is influenced by the social welfare expenditure demand by the regression analysis.
The result of testifying shows that the subsidies of the central government in social welfare service is influenced by the social welfare expenditure demand of the local government, and that the fiscal capacities of the local governments are not considered when the central government donates the grant-in-aids of social welfare service.
This suggests that the social welfare expenditure demand of the local government should be the criterion in distributing the grant-in-aids of social welfare service, and that the differential support of social welfare service to the local governments should be given according to their fiscal capacities.
