自民党の松山政司参院議員会長は15日、石井準一参院幹事長(68)に対し、交代させる方針を伝えた。党関係者が明らかにした。

参院側の国会運営を巡り、石井氏との溝が指摘される高市早苗首相(党総裁)の意向を踏まえたとみられる。首相は、衆院側の国対委員長に閣僚経験のない村井英樹元官房副長官(46)を抜てきする方向で調整。石井氏の交代と合わせ、党内で国会運営の主導権を確保する狙いがありそうだ。

首相は15日の党役員会で、16日に役員人事、17日に内閣改造を行うと表明した。

先の特別国会で、首相は2026年度予算の3月末までの成立を求めたが、参院自民側は野党との協調を重視し、4月にずれ込んだ。審議日程を組んだ石井氏に対し、首相が不満を持っていたとされる。

参院自民の人事権は参院議員会長が持つ。石井氏は16日の役員人事に合わせて退任する見通し。松山氏は後任に、青木一彦参院議院運営委員長(65)を充てる方針を固めた。

一方、首相は役員会で「国民に豊かさと安心を実感してもらえる政策を、政府・党の総力を挙げて強力に実行するため人事を行う」と強調。自民は続く総務会で、首相に対応を一任した。
