"Go To Travel" The ruling and opposition parties discuss at 12:15 on July 19th.
In NHK's "Sunday debate" about "Go To Travel" to stimulate tourism demand, the ruling party side responded flexibly based on the infection situation and suggested that compensation for cancellation fee should be considered. Opposition parties, on the other hand, called for postponement for the time being and support for local efforts.
Liberal Democratic Party Chairman Kishida's chairman said, "It is a touchstone of how to balance infectious disease measures and economic measures, and we have to look into the possibility of promoting the campaign. It should be understood as one measure, and it should be flexibly dealt with in the future. It seems that the government is also working on the cancellation fee, so it is necessary to explain to the people exactly how it will be done.” I said.
“The government's decision was unavoidable, and it was a reasonable decision to exclude the arrival and departure from Tokyo,” said the Komei Party Chairman of the Government Research Commissioner Ishida. I have to think about it because a policy change will incur a cancellation fee. We can't do that, so we have no choice but to pursue compatibility."
"The Go To Travel" should be postponed for the time being and support tourism and transportation businesses with reserves. "Economic activities are limited to areas that do not involve large-scale movement of people." Therefore, the budget should be allocated more to local governments, and consideration should be given so that local efforts can be made.”
“I am close to the problem. I hurry, except for Tokyo, and without compensation for the cancellation fee, the site is quite confused.” I wonder if there will be problems if we take the same measures nationwide."
“I don't think that the infection has come to an end right now. Why do we need to do it at this time? Right now, lost demand does not bring in money.” We need to help people, and we need the treatment where we need it most."
The Communist Party's chairman, Tamura, said, "It is necessary to radically rethink what we should do when we decide to implement it ahead of time. We must switch to what we can do in the region based on the infection situation. You have to do that."
