立民幹事長に岡田氏　政調・長妻氏、国対・安住氏調整―泉代表、２６日に執行部刷新

　立憲民主党は２６日に両院議員総会を開き、執行部を刷新する方針を固めた。７月の参院選で敗北したことを踏まえ、続投する泉健太代表が新執行部人事の骨格を提案、承認を求める。これまでの調整で、党運営の要となる幹事長にベテランの岡田克也元外相（６９）の起用が固まった。
　また、政調会長に長妻昭元厚生労働相（６２）の起用、国対委員長に安住淳氏（６０）の再登板で調整。選対委員長には大串博志元首相補佐官（５６）を充てる方向だ。立民は今月１０日にまとめた参院選総括で、泉氏が主導した「提案型野党」との在り方が敗因と分析。このため泉氏は、政策の打ち出しや国会対応を抜本的に見直す考えだ。
　複数の党幹部が２３日明らかにした。泉氏は岡田氏とともに新たな体制で秋の臨時国会に臨み、岸田政権への対決姿勢を強める見通し。来年春の統一地方選に備え、党再建を急ぐ。（2022/08/23-22:39）

The opposition Constitutional Democratic Party of Japan plans to reshuffle its leadership team on Friday, following its defeat in the House of Councillors election in July, party sources said Tuesday.
   CDP leader Kenta Izumi, who is set to stay on, will propose personnel changes and seek approval for them at a meeting of CDP lawmakers on that day, according to the sources.
   Izumi is slated to appoint former Foreign Minister Katsuya Okada, 69, a party heavyweight, to the key post of secretary-general, replacing incumbent Chinami Nishimura.
   Former Health, Labor and Welfare Minister Akira Nagatsuma, 62, is seen assuming the post of policy chief, and former Diet affairs chief Jun Azumi, 60, is likely to return to the post.
   In the Upper House election, the CDP reduced its seats from 23 to 17. The number of votes it garnered under the proportional representation scheme came to 6.77 million, falling below the number of such votes for another opposition, Nippon Ishin no Kai (Japan Innovation Party).
