While Saitama Prefecture requested that the number of dinners be 4 or less to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus, it was revealed that the Saitama Prefectural Assembly member of the Liberal Democratic Party was having a large number of dinners at the hotel. ..
It was some members of the Liberal Democratic Party prefectural assembly of the Saitama prefectural assembly who had dinner.
According to the prefectural assembly, the members of the Diet shared food and drink at a hotel in Urawa Ward, Saitama City on the 18th of this month when the regular assembly closed in December.
Regarding the number of participants, the prefectural assembly said, "I can't figure out because I was in and out of three and five," but there were dozens of tables with four or five chairs lined up at the venue. It seems that it was a human-scale dinner.
The dinner was accompanied by sake, and the dishes were served individually.
In Saitama Prefecture, the number of infected people per day reached a record high on the 10th of this month, eight days before the dinner, and the infection is spreading again, and the prefecture has requested that the number of people at the dinner be 4 or less.
Saitama Prefectural Assembly Chairman Takumi Tamura, a member of the Liberal Democratic Party's prefectural assembly who participated in the dinner, said, "I don't think it's a problem because the infection countermeasures were well taken." However, I would like to take seriously the criticism that it is no different from a dinner in terms of form. "
