The claim

全国ワースト級の兵庫県財政は斎藤知事で改革が進んだ

Original review summary

The review says Hyogo’s fiscal-reserve balance rose after Saito took office, but the prefecture attributed the increase mainly to stronger corporate performance and tax revenue. It reports that prefectural debt remained broadly flat and that the prefecture anticipated possible revenue shortfalls from fiscal 2026.[S1]
