In connection with issues involving the Unification Church, Prime Minister Fumio Kishida stated Tuesday that the government will submit a new bill to the Diet to prevent damage, including large donations demanded by religious organizations, and to provide relief to those who have fallen victim to such organizations.
"The government will do its utmost to submit the bill to the Diet as soon as possible, aiming for the current Diet session," he told reporters at the Prime Minister's Office. This is the first time that Kishida has stated his intention to submit the legislation to the current Diet session as a government-proposed bill.
