Regarding the deliberation schedule for the new fiscal year's budget, the Liberal Democratic Party and the Constitutional Democratic Party agreed to vote after intensive deliberation at the Budget Committee of the House of Representatives on the 21st of the week and to plenary session on the following 22nd. ..

The budget is expected to pass the House of Representatives on the 22nd.

The Budget Committee of the House of Representatives, which is deliberating the budget plan for the new year = Reiwa 4th year, decided that the chairman of the Liberal Democratic Party, Mr. Nemoto, will hold a committee meeting on the 21st of the week to vote on the budget plan at the afternoon board meeting. It was decided ex officio, and the opposition party rebelled, saying, "It's a violent operation."

In response to this, the Liberal Democratic Party and the Constitutional Democratic Party, the chairman of the Diet Countermeasures Committee, held intermittent discussions.

As a result, we requested the attendance of Prime Minister Kishida on the morning of the 21st, and agreed to vote on the budget after the fifth intensive deliberation in the current Diet session and the closing question in the afternoon.

In addition, it was agreed that the vote at the plenary session of the House of Representatives would be made on the 22nd of the following day, taking into account the request of the opposition party, and the budget bill is expected to pass through the House of Representatives on the 22nd and be sent to the House of Councilors.
