In a Sunday debate on NHK, the Liberal Democratic Party emphasized its desire to enact a bill during the current session of the Diet by the 10th of this month regarding a new bill to regulate malicious donations to help the victims of the former Unification Church. In response, the Constitutional Democratic Party called for a revision, saying that the current situation is insufficient.
Shindo, acting chairman of the Liberal Democratic Party's political affairs research committee, said, "This bill reflects the opinions of the opposition parties, as well as the working-level discussions between the ruling and opposition parties. Since we have pursued the bill until the very last minute, we would like the government to carefully explain in the Diet how we can make it more effective, and to discuss thoroughly what kind of proposal we can get. I want to fulfill my responsibilities," he said.
Takagi, head of the Komeito political affairs research committee, said, ``Since it's difficult for a third party or the courts to stipulate internal problems such as mind control, we have made it a duty of care. I made a decision while doing so.There is room for discussion about the revision of the bill, such as the part of the review provisions."
Nagatsuma, chairman of the Constitutional Democratic Party of Japan's political affairs research committee, said, "Under the government bill, donations made without embarrassment under mind control are not subject to regulation and are hardly cracked down. We will continue discussions to revise the bill so that we can create a good bill. I think there are various ties, but I would like Prime Minister Kishida to make a decision."
Otokita, chairman of the Japan Restoration Party's political affairs research, said, "There are concerns about the effectiveness of the government's proposal. It's a step forward that some restrictions on voluntary donations are specified in a situation where free will is suppressed. , I would like to propose a review that makes it a subject of administrative disposition that goes one step further with a duty of consideration.
Tamura, chairman of the Communist Party's policy committee, said, ``The bill must take into account the characteristics of the damage, and it should also clarify whether the government can cancel donations and what the criteria should be. We need to make obligations prohibitive," he said.
Otsuka, chairman of the Democratic Party for the People's Policy Research Council, said, "80% of the items proposed by the party have been responded to, and the bill is evaluated to a certain extent. We should establish a crime of exploiting psychological control in the criminal code, and we should review it. We need to go ahead and discuss it," he said.
Reiwa Shinsengumi's policy council chairman Oishi said, ``We should not pass a bill that is said to be 'trying to contain the voices of the victims.'
