Tokyo Chiyoda Mayor's Condominium Problem Mayor announces intention to dissolve parliament July 29, 7:52
This is a new move related to the problem that the apartment room owned by the Mayor of Chiyoda in Tokyo was a room called "Business Cooperative Housing Unit" that was not generally sold. In response to the decision of the ward council to criminalize the mayor for perjury and other suspicions, the ward mayor has announced his intention to dissolve the council as "substantial distrust." In response to this, the ward council opposes that "it has no legal effect."
Mayor Ishikawa (79) of Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo owns a room for about 100 million yen in an apartment in a high-class residential area with his family, but this room is not sold to the public and owns the land. It was revealed that it was a room called a "business cooperator's unit" that was provided to people and customers.
On this issue, the Chiyoda ward assembly decided to file a criminal prosecution for perjury, etc. on the premise that Ishikawa mayor lied at the Hyakujo Committee. I have no confidence in him," he said.
The Local Autonomy Law states that the mayor may dissolve the parliament if a vote of no confidence is made, but this time no vote has been made. Chairman Takaya Kobayashi of the Chiyoda Ward Assembly has said, "There is no legal effect and such abusive behavior is unacceptable."
