Regarding the number of members of the Diet, Mr. Hosoda, the chairman of the House of Representatives, said, "Even if you increase the number of members with a monthly salary of less than 1 million yen, you will not be hit by a drumstick."
The chairman of the House of Representatives Hosoda greeted at a party of LDP members held in Tokyo on the night of the 10th, and some people said that the number of members of the Diet was "'It is wasteful to pay the annual expenses, so reduce the number.'" A member of the Diet said that it was about 700,000 yen or 600,000 yen by hand. "
On top of that, "It is better to think about whether it is better to reduce the number of staff. Democracy is better to have a lot of members discuss it, and it seems that the monthly salary per person is less than 1 million yen. Even if the number of members is increased a little, the drumstick will not hit, "he said, questioning the tendency to reduce the number of members.
