One month until the end of the ordinary session of the Diet

The Diet has less than a month until the end of the session.

The ruling party wants to pass the remaining important bills within the session, while the opposition party intends to strengthen its pursuit that the government's response to the new coronavirus continues to be unsuccessful, and the Diet distrusts the cabinet at the end of the session. It is expected that the ruling and opposition parties will intensify their offense and defense, including the handling of resolutions.

The ordinary session of the Diet, which was convened in January, was less than a month until the end of the session on the 16th of next month.

The ruling party will pay 20% of the amendment to the Immigration Control and Refuge Law, which reviews the deportation of foreigners who have been deported, and the burden of medical expenses for people aged 75 and over for those with an annual income of 2 million yen or more. The policy is to enact the remaining important bills within the session, such as the amendment of the law to be raised to.

In addition, as the infection of the new coronavirus continues to spread, we would like to cooperate with the government to take all possible measures against infection and vaccination to dispel public anxiety.

On the other hand, the Constitutional Democratic Party and others have not changed their stance that they will not be able to vote on amendments such as the Immigration Control and Refuge Act unless the truth about the death of a Sri Lankan woman in the detention facility is being investigated.

In addition, regarding the government's response to corona, we are planning to strengthen our pursuit, saying that missteps such as misjudgment of the state of emergency have continued to make the situation worse.

On the other hand, there is a cautious opinion within the opposition over the submission of a vote of no confidence in the Cabinet that it should avoid measures that would lead to the dissolution of the House of Representatives as the infection spreads, but the Kan administration cannot hope for improvement. There are also voices requesting submission as.

In the final session of the Diet, it is expected that the ruling and opposition parties will intensify their offense and defense in view of the House of Representatives election, including the handling of resolutions.
