消費税減税および給付制度をめぐる法案が衆議院での審議に入った。

Font size

消費税減税関連法案は、財源や所得連動型給付の対象、支給額など重要項目を示さない異例の形で20日に審議入りした。高市早苗首相は「手取りが増える」などと政策効果を訴えるが、具体案については今のところ「参考」程度の説明にとどまっている。法案成立に向け、どこまで詳細が明らかになるのか見通せない。

高市首相、財源・給付詳細を示さず 消費減税法案、衆院審議入り

首相は給付対象者数について、類似の制度を採用している米英仏3カ国の対象が現役就労者の3割程度であることを踏まえ、2000万人程度が「一つの参考」だと指摘。年収100万~350万円の層が当てはまると説明した。

消費減税とともに先行導入する給付制度は、税率1%分の年6,000億円が原資。このため、1人当たりの支給額は、平均で年3万円の計算となる。

2年間の減税終了後、2029年度に本格導入する給付について首相は、「対象者の大宗は税率引き下げの効果を上回る支援を受けられる」と強調する。機械的にはじいた減税の恩恵は国民1人当たり3万6,000円で、これも給付額の目安になる。

税・社会保険料の負担から児童手当などの給付を差し引いた「純負担率」の国際比較も、対象者や給付額の設計に反映される見通し。夫婦と子ども2人世帯の場合、年収510万円以下は純負担率が米独仏3カ国の平均を上回る。純負担額の差は最大で年27万円に上る。

一方、2年間で10兆円が必要な減税と給付の財源は、片山さつき財務相が「ギアを一段と上げて取り組む」と宣言した租税特別措置や補助金、基金の見直しなどで捻出する。

このほか、税外収入の上積みや外国為替資金特別会計の剰余金活用、近年の補正予算に計上した3兆円規模の物価高対策の見直しなどを検討。過去5年で平均6兆円を超える税収の上振れも候補に挙がるが、内訳は明らかにしていない。

ただ、高市政権は来年度、防衛費増額や成長投資などにも巨費を投じる計画。これらの予算額や財源確保にも不確定要素が多く、消費減税などの財源や給付の具体像は「年末に来年度予算案を決めるまで示せない」(財務省幹部)との声が漏れる。
