At the town council in Wanochi Town, Gifu Prefecture, one of the nine members was confirmed to be infected with the new coronavirus, and all the other members were also recognized as close contacts, so the deliberation could not be continued and the council closed. It became a prospect.
According to Wanochi Town, Gifu Prefecture, the regular assembly of the town council started on the 3rd of this month, but after the plenary session, one member of the Diet had a fever and was confirmed to be infected with the new coronavirus.
On that day, all nine members of the Diet were having lunch in the parliamentary room, so the health center recognized the other eight as close contacts and put them on standby for two weeks until the 17th of this month. ..
The parliament is scheduled to close by the 16th of this month, and since it is not possible to gather all the members of the Diet until the final day and it is not possible to vote to extend the session, it is expected to be a "natural closing" that closes with the deliberation suspended.
The supplementary budget bill that includes the new corona measures that was scheduled to be deliberated at this regular assembly is expected to be abolished, and the town is discussing for resubmission to the extraordinary assembly.
Mr. Hiroshi Arakawa, Councilor of Wanochi Town, said, "The delay in passing the bill will not have a big impact immediately, but the town wants to respond quietly. I want to call you. "
