Representative Izumi of Ritmin “Trigger Clause” Meeting with Representative Tamaki of Citizens Postponed for the time being. Izumi said that the National Democratic Party of Japan would implement the "trigger clause" that would suspend the tax on the added portion of the gasoline tax.
Izumi revealed that he was told that he would have to talk to the Japan Restoration Party, and it would be difficult to immediately discuss it with the Constitutional Democratic Party. He then stated, ``I have not decided what to do going forward,'' and expressed his intention to postpone talks with Mr. Tamaki.
