　林芳正官房長官は４日の記者会見で、石破茂首相が代表を務めた旧石破派（水月会）の政治資金パーティー収入を巡り不記載があったとの一部報道に関し、「首相は直ちに経理を担当していた者に事実関係を確認させている」と明らかにした。その上で「必要に応じ適切に説明がなされる」と強調した。
　これに対し、立憲民主党の野田佳彦代表は会見で「新しい事実が次々出てきている。再調査すべきだ」と批判した。
　朝日新聞は同日付朝刊で、旧石破派が２０１９～２１年に開いた政治資金パーティー収入のうち、計８０万円分を政治資金収支報告書に記載していなかったと報じた。（2024/10/04-12:08）

Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba is still confirming facts over alleged fund reporting irregularities at his now-disbanded faction in the ruling Liberal Democratic Party, a government official said Friday.
   Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshimasa Hayashi made the remark in response to a newspaper report that Ishiba's faction failed to include some revenues from fundraising parties in mandatory annual fund reports.
   "There will be a proper explanation as needed," Hayashi also said at a press conference.
   The major daily Asahi Shimbun reported in its Friday morning edition that the faction headed by Ishiba failed to include in annual fund reports some 800,000 yen of the revenues from fundraising parties held between 2019 and 2021.
   Yoshihiko Noda, president of the main opposition Constitutional Democratic Party of Japan, criticized Ishiba and the LDP, saying: "One new fact emerges after another. The party needs reinvestigations."
