Regarding the draft summary of the House of Councillors election, the Liberal Democratic Party is finalizing adjustments to clearly state points such as the failure of their measures against rising prices to resonate with the public and the loss of trust due to political funding issues as reasons for their defeat, and that they will work on a party-wide renewal.

In the draft, it is stated that the results of the House of Councillors election will be taken seriously and solemnly, and as an analysis of the defeat, it plans to list nine factors that led to a loss of support for the Liberal Democratic Party.

In this context, it states that the measures against rising prices did not resonate with the public, and adds, The decision to provide cash handouts was made just before the election, and the party as a whole was unable to unite and explain this to the public. As a result, we were not able to adequately counter the opposition parties clear call for tax cuts.

The issue of politics and money continues to be a major factor undermining the trust of the people, and we must be aware that it is the underlying cause of public distrust and deeply reflect on it.

And while it is believed that the low approval ratings of the Cabinet and the party had an impact, there is consideration being given to not directly referring to the responsibility of Prime Minister Ishiba or the party leadership.

Regarding future initiatives, they are finalizing adjustments to clearly state directions such as fundamentally strengthening the party headquarters human resource development functions in response to the dissolution of many factions, as well as enhancing communication on social media and responses to misinformation. They are moving toward specifying efforts such as undertaking a party-wide restructuring and transforming into a true national party.
