Regarding the ideal state of the Diet in an emergency, which is one of the themes of constitutional revision, the Constitutional Democratic Party does not deny consideration of the extension of the term of lawmakers, which the LDP and others advocate. We have compiled a proposal for the idea that it is fundamental to maintain the functions of the Diet, such as by improving the mechanism.
In discussions between the ruling and opposition parties over constitutional revision, one of the themes has been how the Diet should function in emergencies such as large-scale disasters. I argue that it should be enshrined in the constitution.
Under these circumstances, the Constitutional Democratic Party has compiled a proposal for the party's way of thinking, and while it is basic to utilize the emergency assembly of the House of Councillors in the event of an emergency after the dissolution of the House of Representatives, it does not intend to extend the term of office of members. , Considering the possibility that elections will not be possible for a long time due to war, etc., it is not that there is no room for consideration.
On the other hand, it is said that it is fundamental to maintain the functions of the Diet, such as quickly establishing a mechanism for online deliberations, by developing legislation rather than amending the constitution.
