Opposition opposition to the Prime Minister's "advance adjustment" remarks continued on November 7, 4:47
In the Diet, Prime Minister Suga said that three years ago, the government and the conference had been coordinating before submitting the nomination list over the appointment of members of the Science Council of Japan.
Opposition parties, on the other hand, have opposed it as "unjustified political intervention," and it is expected that discussions between the ruling and opposition parties will continue in the future, such as by holding intensive deliberations.
In the Diet, Prime Minister Suga and others attended the budget committees of both houses of the Diet until the 6th, and questions were held.
Regarding the appointment of members of the Science Council of Japan, Prime Minister Suga said on the 5th, "Last time, certain adjustments were made before the recommendation list was submitted. This time, the adjustments before the recommendation did not work. As a result, some of the nominations did not reach the appointment. "
Then, on the 6th, "Advance Coordination" was a reconciliation of ideas, and showed that the exercise of the right to appoint oneself does not infringe on the independence of the duties of the meeting and is not a problem.
Opposition parties have responded by saying, "The prime minister must have only the formal right to appoint the nomination list. Adjustment before submitting the list is also an unjustified political intervention."
Opposition parties are calling for intensive deliberation at the Budget Committee, top secretariat, and attendance at the Diet of Deputy Cabinet Secretariat Sugita, saying that the government needs to take further action.
On the other hand, although the ruling party cannot accept the attendance of Deputy Secretary Sugita, the ruling and opposition parties are expected to continue discussions as they want to consider the schedule of intensive deliberation while checking the deliberation status of the bill.
