緊急事態条項創設を検討　参院選公約に反映へ―維新改憲案

　日本維新の会は、党憲法改正原案に緊急事態条項の創設を盛り込む方向で検討に入った。月内にも議論を開始。早期に取りまとめ、夏の参院選公約に反映させたい考えだ。
　馬場伸幸共同代表は１２日の記者会見で、緊急事態条項に関し、「私権の制限と公共の福祉、自粛要請した際の補償問題を議論しておかなければならない」と強調した。
　維新は２０１６年に教育無償化、道州制導入などの統治機構改革、憲法裁判所の設置を柱とする改憲原案をまとめている。これに加え、新型コロナウイルス感染拡大を踏まえ、緊急事態条項がなければ「国民の命を守れない」（幹部）と判断した。（2022/01/12-20:04）

Nippon Ishin no Kai (Japan Innovation Party) is considering calling for the creation of an emergency situation clause in the Constitution as part of its draft constitutional reform proposals, according to informed sources.
   The pro-constitutional reform opposition party plans to launch discussions on the draft proposals later this month, hoping to compile them at an early date and have them reflected in its campaign pledges for this summer's election for the House of Councillors, the upper chamber of the Diet, Japan's parliament, the sources said.
   "We have to discuss the issues of private right restrictions, public welfare and compensation" for damage resulting from restricted activities, Nobuyuki Baba, co-leader of Nippon Ishin, told a press conference on Wednesday.
   The ruling Liberal Democratic Party has proposed establishing in the Constitution a clause applicable in times of emergencies, including for a special extension of lawmakers' terms in the event of a major natural disaster, in its draft constitutional amendment proposals.
   In 2016, Nippon Ishin compiled the original version of its constitutional revision proposals featuring the provision of free education, the reform of the country's regional governance system and the establishment of a constitutional court.
