Add LEI issuer claim
Feedback from METI to the authority claims/regal entity.
Comment:
- there are at least 2 legal entity identifier issuers in Japan, GLEIF, Ministry of Justice.
Proposal:
- add lei_issuer claim for legal entity
"authority": [ {
"applies_to": {
"company_name": "Example Company Limited",
"jurisdiction": "england-wales",
"lei": "1234567",
"lei_issuer": "GLEIF" <-- add issuer of the LEI
},

Following discussion I will raise a PR to update the document

I have done some homework and it would appear that the LEI code itself is a structured string as per… https://lei.info/portal/resources/lei-code/ and the first 4 characters of an LEI are reserved for the LOU (Local Operating Unit) which is the issuer as far as I understand.
I would suggest that as it is embedded in the
lei
then we should not add issuer.

I think what @Naohiro Fujie meant was there are at least two “legal entity identifier” of legal entities in Japan.
One is the GLEIF (in Japan, mainly maintained by Tokyo Stock Exchange), and the other is so-called “legal entity number” maintained by Japanese government (National Tax Agency), and there two are completely different structure and maintained by different framework.
For example, the former “identifier” of KDDI corp is
5299003FU7V4I45FU310
and the latter is9011101031552

reporter Thank you @Kosuke Koiwai . What I meant is this.
"authority": [ { "applies_to": { "company_name": "KDDI Corporation", "jurisdiction": "Japan", "lei": [{ "number": "5299003FU7V4I45FU310", "issuer": "GLEIF" },{ "number": "9011101031552", "National Tax Agency" }] },

Following discussion at the working group meeting yesterday I think the consensus was to keep the “lei” claim exclusively for identifiers issued under the governance of GLEIF and ISO17442. I will extend the definition to make that clearer.
With regard to the Japanese National Tax agency number I think we agreed to look at the “
registration_number
“ and “registered_jurisdiction
“ claims and potentially extend them to more completely reflect the issuing body, jurisdiction and other associated attributes. -
- changed milestone to Authority ID1

reporter I have discussed with METI and got feedback for this issue. They said there is no problem to keep the “lei” claim for identifiers issued by GLEIF related organizations, but they still have requirement to have multiple identifiers from different organizations.
So I propose to make
registration_number
to have structured array values like this,"authority": [ { "applies_to": { "company_name": "KDDI Corporation", "jurisdiction": "Japan", "lei": "5299003FU7V4I45FU310", "registration_numbers": [{ "number": "9011101031552", "issuer": National Tax Agency" },{ "number": "999999999999", "issuer": "some other organization" }] },

Perhaps a structured object might be better…
