Regarding so-called documentary transportation expenses, the Nippon Ishin no Kai will take the initiative in increasing the transparency of the system even if the current Diet does not realize the revision of the law, and will launch a party-specific initiative during the session. became.
Regarding the "document communication transportation stay fee" that is paid to the Diet members by 1 million yen every month, the ruling party should give priority to the revision of the law to change it to a daily payment, while the opposition party also sets the obligation to disclose the usage. It is difficult to amend the law in the current Diet session, which will reach the end of the session on the 21st of next week.
The Nippon Ishin no Kai, which has already disclosed its usage as a party's own initiative, held a meeting on the 16th to take the initiative in increasing the transparency of the system even if the law revision is not realized. We discussed specific measures.
At the meeting, it was agreed that the items that could be spent on documentary transportation expenses were limited and clearly stated, and that the surplus that was not used up should not be donated to party branches and should be returned to the national government. , It was decided to launch a party-specific initiative within the current session of the Diet.
After the meeting, Secretary-general Fujita said, "It is a problem that we voluntarily disclose the usage. In order to eliminate the black box, we would like to focus on transparency and comprehensibility."
