Government to submit 52 bills to the ordinary Diet convened on March 20 16:34 on January 17

At the ordinary parliament convened next week, the government will submit 52 bills, including relevant pension reform bills. The government will usually submit the least number of bills to the Diet to date, unless the lower house is dissolved during the session.

The House of Representatives held a meeting of the House of Representatives Steering Committee, which opened on Tuesday, respectively, and was attended by the Deputy Secretary-General of the Cabinet and explained that it would submit 52 bills to the ordinary parliament convened next week next week. .

This includes bills related to pension system reforms, such as expanding the application of employee pensions to part-time workers, and bills that set new regulations to ensure transparency in the digital market. .

On the other hand, it is considering whether to submit an amendment to reduce the age targeted for protection under the Juvenile Law to less than 18 years.

The number of legislation that the government normally submits to the Diet is expected to be less than 56, four years ago, and the lowest so far, unless the lower house was dissolved during the session.

The session of the ordinary Diet session lasts 150 days until June 17, and it is thought that it is difficult to extend the session in preparation for the Tokyo governor's election, etc., so the government seems to have narrowed the bill to be submitted. .
