The Noda Cabinet governed Japan from September 2011 to December 2012 under premiership of Yoshihiko Noda, who came into power after winning the DPJ leadership in September 2011. The Cabinet enacted economic reforms to reduce the burden of Japan's debt and the costs inflicted by the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami and the subsequent Fukushima nuclear accident.
