Timeline
Abe resigned as Prime Minister in September 2020, and Kato became Chief Cabinet Secretary under his successor Yoshihide Suga.

When Abe returned as Prime Minister in December 2012, Kato was appointed Deputy Chief Cabinet Secretary. In October 2015 he joined the cabinet for the first time as a minister of state with a portfolio including countermeasures against the declining birthrate and women's empowerment. After a reshuffle in August 2017 he became Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare.

In August 2007, Kato became parliamentary vice minister to the Cabinet Office in the Abe Cabinet. He was retained until the end of the Fukuda Cabinet.
After unsuccessful runs in 1998 and 2000, Kato was elected to the House of Representatives for the first time in the 2003 general election. He had initially ran as an independent as his father-in-law had left the LDP. However, fellow Okayama politician and former Prime Minister Ryutaro Hashimoto recruited him for the party and when elected, Kato joined the Heisei Kenkyukai led by Hashimoto. This was significant as Hashimoto and Mutsuki Kato had long been rivals in the political world of Okayama.
Katsunobu eventually married the daughter of Mutsuki Kato. As the family had only daughters, Katsunobu was adopted by his father-in-law to carry on the family name. The family was based in Okayama Prefecture where Kato would pursue his political career. He retired from the Ministry of Finance in 1995 and became his father-in-law's personal secretary.
