On the 15th, the Minister of Justice Mori will attend a question-and-answer session at the House of Representatives Cabinet Committee meeting on the proposed amendment to the Prosecutor's Office Law, which allows prosecutors to extend their retirement age. While the ruling party wants to vote after a question and answer, the opposition party says it can not accept it, and the offensive and defense of the ruling party is expected to develop.

Regarding the proposed revision of the Public Prosecutor's Law, the opposition party left on the way of the question of the House of Representatives Cabinet Committee on the 13th, saying, "The cabinet's judgment does not indicate the criteria for extending the retirement age of the public prosecutor." Minister of Justice Mori asked to attend and explain.

On the other hand, the ruling party decided to respond by saying, "The interest of the people is high and it is necessary for Minister Mori to explain." On the afternoon of the 15th, Minister Mori will attend and a question will be asked.

Prime Minister Abe said, "This amendment will not violate the separation of powers and will not carry out arbitrary personnel affairs at all."

The ruling party postpones voting at the plenary session of the House of Representatives next week, but the committee hopes to vote after a question on the 15th.

On the other hand, the representative of the Constitutional Democratic Party, Edano, said, "Many of you are calling out and I want to make an effort to separate the" deterioration "part until the end."

The opposition party is considering submitting a draft resolution of the Cabinet Chairman's dismissal, saying that it will not accept the voting unless the prosecutor's provision for extension of retirement age is deleted, and the offensive and defense of the ruling and opposition parties will be developed. It is a prospect.
