At a board meeting of the House of Representatives Steering Committee held on the 19th, the opposition party said that Hosoda, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, who has been pointed out to have a relationship with the former Unification Church, has not fulfilled his accountability sufficiently before convening the ordinary Diet session. The Chairman asked for an explanation.
In response to this, the ruling party proposed that the directors of each parliamentary group meet with Hosoda to receive explanations, taking into account Hosoda's intentions, but the opposition party said, It should be broken," and there was no compromise.
