Following the representative questions of each party in the Diet, the Budget Committee of the House of Representatives will begin deliberation on the supplementary budget for this year from the beginning of the week.

The debate is expected to begin in earnest over the benefits of 100,000 yen to those under the age of 18.

In the Diet, representative questions from each party were asked for Prime Minister Kishida's statement of belief for three days until the 10th.



Prime Minister Kishida flexibly responds to the benefits of 100,000 yen for those under the age of 18 included in economic measures, while listening to the opinions of local governments, while in principle using both cash of 50,000 yen and coupons of 50,000 yen. I have repeatedly shown the thoughts of doing so.



From the beginning of the week, the Budget Committee of the House of Representatives will begin deliberation on the supplementary budget for this year, which will support economic measures.



The ruling party wants to steadily proceed with deliberations to strengthen measures against the new coronavirus, including the response to the mutant virus "Omicron strain," and to rebuild the economy, and to pass the budget bill to the House of Representatives in the middle of next week. ..



Opposition parties are confused about the government's policy regarding benefits worth 100,000 yen, and the local government has decided to take the government's response, and the debate is expected to begin in earnest.



Meanwhile, former LDP Secretary General Ishihara, who was appointed as Special Advisor to the Cabinet earlier this month, resigned on the 10th because the party's branch, which he represents, was confused by the receipt of the "employment adjustment subsidy." ..



The ruling party wants to hurry to calm the situation and minimize the damage, including the fact that Deputy Minister of the Environment Ooka also received a "subsidy" from the party branch of the representative, while the opposition party is Prime Minister Kishida. It is a policy to pursue the responsibility for appointing.
