新しん年度ねんど予算よさん案あん きょう成立せいりつへ 企業きぎょう・団体だんたい献金けんきんは議論ぎろん継続けいぞくの見込みこみ

The new fiscal years budget bill is set to be passed after being sent back to the House of Representatives following its revision in the House of Councillors on the 31st, the end of the fiscal year.

On the other hand, regarding the handling of corporate and organizational donations, which the ruling and opposition parties have agreed to conclude by the 31st, discussions are expected to continue beyond April.

<br>The budget proposal for the new fiscal year, which is the Reiwa 7 fiscal year, will be revised again in the House of Councillors due to the postponement of the increase in the cap on the high-cost medical care system.

<br><br>The revised proposal is expected to be approved on the 31st, the end of the fiscal year, during the vote in the Budget Committee and the subsequent plenary session, with a majority in favor from the ruling parties, including the Liberal Democratic Party and Komeito, as well as the Japan Innovation Party, which agreed on specific measures for free education.

<br><br>And then, following further amendments in the House of Councillors, it will be returned to the House of Representatives based on legal provisions, where it is expected to gain majority approval in the afternoon plenary session and be enacted.

It will be the first time under the current constitution that a budget bill, revised again in the House of Councillors, is approved and passed in the House of Representatives.

<br><br>Meanwhile, regarding the handling of corporate and organizational donations, the ruling and opposition parties have agreed to reach a conclusion by the 31st.

The special committee of the House of Representatives is deliberating on a bill submitted by the Liberal Democratic Party to enhance transparency, and a bill jointly submitted by the Constitutional Democratic Party and the Japan Innovation Party to completely ban donations from corporations and labor unions, but neither is expected to pass.

<br><br>The Komeito and the Democratic Party for the People are compiling an outline of a bill to strengthen regulations rather than prohibit them, but have not yet submitted it to the Diet.

<br><br>In light of this situation, the Liberal Democratic Party is calling for a vote on the bill under deliberation to reach a conclusion for the time being, while the Constitutional Democratic Party argues that they should wait for the bill to be submitted by the Komeito and the Democratic Party for the People, and that there is no need for a vote. On the 31st, the ruling and opposition parties will discuss their responses at a special committee board meeting.

<br><br>Regarding the future, the three parties of the Liberal Democratic Party, Komeito, and the Democratic Party for the People have begun working-level discussions in the direction of strengthening regulations rather than prohibiting them, and are calling on the Constitutional Democratic Party to participate in the discussions, so debates between the ruling and opposition parties are expected to continue beyond April.
