The position was created on May 3, 1947, shortly after the passage of the Constitution of Japan. The Secretary was elevated to ministerial status in 1966. Yasuo Fukuda, who served under Yoshiro Mori and Junichiro Koizumi, is the longest-serving Chief Cabinet Secretary in history, having spent over 1,289 days in office. Chief Cabinet Secretaries who later became prime minister include Eisaku Sato, Takeo Fukuda, and Keizo Obuchi.
