自民党執行部は9日にも、衆院本会議で消費税減税関連法案の採決を棄権した石破茂前首相ら4議員への処分を決める見通しだ。不問に付せば、与党が少数の参院採決でも造反者が出かねないと警戒する声が党内にあり、一定の処分が必要と判断しているとみられる。

石破氏らに棄権の説明要求 減税法案採決で自民執行部

6日の本会議を途中退席して採決を棄権したのは石破氏、小渕優子元選対委員長、古川禎久元法相、船田元・元経済企画庁長官。4氏は執行部の求めに応じ、棄権の経緯を説明する文書を党に提出した。これを踏まえ、鈴木俊一幹事長らが対応を検討している。

同党の党則や規約では、幹事長は党所属の国会議員に対し、(1)党則順守の勧告(2)戒告(3)党の役職停止(4)国会、政府の役職の辞任勧告―の処分を行うことができる。このほか党紀委員会で処分を検討する方法もある。

石破氏は9日午後、法案に賛成しなかった理由について、国会内で記者団に対し「減税の財源がいまだに判明しない」と述べた。古川氏は「(物価高対策は)政治の責任だ。しかし、今回の法案ではその責任を十分に果たせると判断できない」と記した文書を党幹事長室に送付した。

Prime Minister Takaichi ``doesn't drink at all'' The government denies the report when he was absent from the G7 video conference

At a press conference on the 9th, Chief Cabinet Secretary Minoru Kihara categorically denied the report that Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi had been drinking at a dinner with Liberal Democratic Party leaders just before her absence from last month's G7 summit video conference, saying it was ``based on assumptions and conjecture.'' The meeting was held on the evening of October 2nd, and the Deputy Minister for Foreign Affairs attended on his behalf. Deputy Chief Cabinet Secretary Yusuke Nakanishi, who was present, admitted in the Diet that alcoholic beverages had been served, and another attendee revealed that the prime minister had also consumed alcohol.

``Clear positioning'' ``Unnecessary'' Pros and cons of specifying the Self-Defense Forces in Article 9 - Interview with people with security experience - 80th anniversary of the promulgation of the Constitution

Celebrating 80 years since the promulgation of the Japanese Constitution, a proposed amendment to explicitly enshrine the Self-Defense Forces in the Constitution is becoming more realistic. Koji Yamazaki, a former Chief of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, argues that a clear statement will clarify the position of the bill and boost morale, while Kyoji Yanagisawa, a former deputy chief cabinet secretary, argues that the unconstitutionality argument has already been settled and that even if it is clearly written, nothing will change legally.
