Coordination by extension of the declaration of emergency Situation of necessary measures by government Government to secure financial resources 15:34 on April 30
The government is making adjustments in the direction of extending the declaration of emergencies by about one month while keeping the target area nationwide. If you continue to refrain from going out, economic activity may stagnate and the economy may further decline.
In response to the establishment of the supplementary budget for this year, the government will urgently implement policies that are included in emergency economic measures, such as uniform payment of 100,000 yen, payment of benefits to businesses, and expansion of employment adjustment subsidies. It is a policy.
However, the ruling and opposition parties are proceeding with discussions on support for businesses who have difficulty in paying rents and students who have a difficult life, and there are calls for the formation of a new supplementary budget to secure additional financial resources.
The government will consider the necessary measures after analyzing the economic impact of the extension of the emergency declaration, taking into consideration future discussions by the ruling party.
Prime Minister Abe also stated at the Budget Committee of the House of Representatives on the 28th, "I will do what I should do without hesitation if further measures are needed."
The government has provided a reserve of 1.5 trillion yen in preparation for additional spending for the supplementary budget for the current year, which was established on the 30th. However, if additional measures are considered, financial resources will increase. Securing is also an issue.
