RBA assistant governor Kent said monthly employment data should be treated with caution, though labour market tightness has eased slightly.

KYODO reported on Sunday that Prime Minister TAKAICHI's cabinet approval rating slid to 49.1% in an Oct. 17-18 poll, the lowest since she took office in Oct. last year. The decline follows criticism of her handling of the resignation of the agriculture, forestry and fisheries minister, who quit Wednesday after remarks about cutting road-construction funding to local governments that do not support him were reported. KYODO said 57.7% of respondents felt TAKAICHI's decision to remove the minister was too late and 81.5% said his resignation was warranted. The minister had been appointed in last month's cabinet reshuffle and was publicly rebuked by TAKAICHI in parliament after the remarks surfaced earlier this month.
