总理高一和日本创新党领袖吉村弘流同意提出一项法案,在本届议会会议期间将下议院席位削减10%,以履行联盟的一项关键承诺。 Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi and Japan Innovation Party leader Hirofumi Yoshimura have agreed to introduce a bill to cut the Lower House seat count by 10% during the current parliamentary session, fulfilling a key coalition promise. 改革将减少单一成员席位和比例代表席位,目的是精简日本的立法程序。 The reform will reduce both single-member and proportional representation seats, aiming to streamline Japan’s legislative process. 该法案的提交标志着关键的一步,计划通过包括反对党在内的联合理事会进行进一步讨论。 The bill’s submission marks a critical step, with further discussions planned through a joint council including opposition parties. 联合党面临压力,要在12月17日前通过这项措施,因为联合党警告说,如果改革失败,它可能退出联盟。 The coalition faces pressure to pass the measure by December 17, as the JIP has warned it may exit the alliance if the reform fails.
