The Constitutional Democratic Party, while the Liberal Democratic Party argued that the Constitution should be discussed to include emergency response in response to the spread of the new Corona, was held at the first House of Representatives Constitutional Research Committee in the current Diet session. He argued that discussions such as allowing online parliamentary deliberation in the constitutional interpretation should be prioritized.

The Constitutional Research Committee of the House of Representatives was held for the first time in the current Diet, and free discussions were held by each party on the theme of the Constitution and the referendum.



Of these, Yoshitaka Shindo of the Liberal Democratic Party said, "It is time to think concretely and in earnest about the debate on the revision of the Constitution. Now that we are in the midst of an emergency called the new Corona, there are no provisions in the current Constitution. Isn't there an urgent need for discussions about emergencies? We need to consider various things, such as whether we can participate remotely online in order to maintain the functioning of the Diet. "



On the other hand, Mr. Soichiro Okuno of the Constitutional Democratic Party said, "We are in a position to take the position of'constitution'and make up for any shortcomings in the constitution. It is not in time to talk about it, and we should give priority to discussions so that the constitutional interpretation allows online parliamentary deliberation. "



The Constitutional Democratic Party says that it should be held once a week on regular days in order for the ruling party and others to discuss the revision of the Constitution, while the Constitutional Democratic Party said, "It should be held frequently during budget deliberation. It will continue to be the focus of the event from next week onwards.
