The House of Representatives Budget Committee continues to deliberate on the new fiscal year budget bill on Saturday, the 2nd. The ruling party believes that since the budget bill includes contingency funds to deal with the Noto Peninsula earthquake, it is certain that it will be enacted within the fiscal year.

The opposition parties intend to make a final decision on whether to vote based on the content of the deliberations. If passed, there will be questions at the House of Councilors Budget Committee on the 4th and 5th.
