The Diet will last for more than a month until the end of the session, and the ruling party has a policy of urgently enacting supplementary budget bills and important bills for this year in response to urgent measures to deal with rising prices.
On the other hand, the opposition party intends to pursue it, saying, "The supplementary budget is just an increase in the reserve fund used for emergency measures, and it is a problem." It is a prospect.
After the Golden Week holidays, the Diet will be over a month until the end of the session on the 15th of next month.
A new bill to strengthen economic security, which the Kishida administration regards as an important bill, is scheduled to be passed by the House of Councilors Cabinet Committee on the 10th, and the ruling party wants to pass and pass it at the House of Councilors plenary session on the 11th.
On the other hand, there is an opinion within the ruling party that the ruling party is requesting prompt deliberation on the supplementary budget for this year due to urgent measures to respond to rising prices, as the schedule is limited until the end of the session ahead of the Upper House election. ..
The ruling party plans to make full-scale adjustments to the timing of submission and urgently enact it, while assessing the deliberation status of the remaining important bills, such as the bill to establish the "Children's Family Agency," which will be the control tower for children's policies.
On the other hand, the opposition party said, "The method of accumulating reserve funds that are not decided in advance with a supplementary budget is a problem only because the government can freely use more money."
In addition, the content of the emergency measures is not only insufficient in scale, but it is also prepared to pursue it as a balamaki aimed at receiving voters such as cash payment of 50,000 yen. It is expected to be fierce.
