The LDP held a meeting of the LDP regarding legislation to promote understanding of LGBT people. A proposal was presented to change the wording of "discrimination is not tolerated" to "there should be no unfair discrimination," but no consensus was reached and discussions were continued.
There are calls from within the ruling and opposition parties for its passage by the G7 Hiroshima Summit next week. The LDP has decided to hold a joint meeting on the 10th to discuss the bill's passage. The bill of a bipartisan parliamentary coalition was not submitted to the Diet due to a lack of consensus.
