In response to the issue surrounding the faction's political funding party, the Liberal Democratic Party has begun making arrangements to have party leaders including General Affairs Chairman Moriyama begin interviewing members of the Abe faction as early as this week.
In response to this issue, Prime Minister Kishida stated at the House of Representatives Budget Committee on the 29th, ``We would like to understand the actual situation as a party through interviews with the parties involved, and think about our political responsibility.'' .
In response to this, the Liberal Democratic Party has begun making arrangements to have party leaders including General Affairs Chairman Moriyama, Political Affairs Research Chairman Watami Watanabe, and House of Councilors Secretary-General Matsuyama begin interviewing members of the Abe and Nikai factions within the week. .
Interviews will be conducted in pairs with executives working in pairs, and we are considering asking questions such as the amount of kickbacks received from factions, how they were used, and why they were not recorded in income and expenditure reports.
The Liberal Democratic Party has been asked by opposition parties to investigate whether all Diet members received kickbacks from factions and submit the results, and will promptly conduct the investigation to minimize the impact on Diet deliberations. It seems that there is a desire to limit the amount.
