Regarding its relationship with the former Unification Church, the Liberal Democratic Party will soon issue a notice requesting local organizations to take appropriate measures to ensure that the candidates they stand for in next spring's unified local elections do not receive systematic support from the church. I plan to put it out.
The Liberal Democratic Party revised the "Governance Code", which is a guideline for organizational governance, in order to ensure that the party's members of parliament have a policy of not having any relationship with the former Unification Church in the future. , has set out to strictly refrain from acts that could be subject to undue political influence.
With the unified local elections scheduled for next spring, the Liberal Democratic Party plans to notify each prefectural federation on the 26th in order to require that candidates who are nominated and recommended also comply with this policy.
The notice exemplifies behaviors that should be refrained from, such as attending church meetings and sending congratulatory telegrams, as well as receiving or requesting support for organized elections or financial assistance from the church. We will ask local organizations to respond appropriately.
