Regarding the problem that executives of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications were receiving entertainment from the eldest son of Prime Minister Suga who works for a satellite broadcasting related company, at the Liberal Democratic Party faction meeting on the 25th, entertainment and dinner that violate the ethical code are not allowed. There were a series of opinions calling for prevention of recurrence.
Among them, Kishida, the former chairman of the political affairs investigation, said, "The punishment for violating the ethical rules of national civil servants is an issue that the government and the ruling party must take seriously and tighten their hearts again. Is this convincing to the public? , We must take a close look at whether it will lead to the restoration of trust by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications. "
Former Minister of Internal Affairs and Communications Takeshita said, "Especially those who are senior civil servants must be aware of it, but there should be no situation that is happening at the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications or the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries. I have to re-tighten the loincloth once. "
In addition, Mr. Ibuki, the former Speaker of the House of Representatives, said about Makiko Yamada, a Cabinet Public Relations Secretary who was receiving entertainment of over 70,000 yen per person at the time of the Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs and Communications, No, but you shouldn't be careful about dinner with stakeholders, and the problem is that you can't split the bill when it's expensive.
