The Japanese government and the ruling coalition led by the Liberal Democratic Party are discussing a plan to set the date for convening an extraordinary session of the Diet, or parliament, on Nov. 28, informed sources said Thursday.

The session will be convened to discuss a fiscal 2024 supplementary budget that will finance a planned economic package and proposed revisions to the political funds control law in the wake of the LDP’s slush funds scandal.

There is also a proposal to set the date for convening the extraordinary session on Nov. 29 in consideration of Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba’s overseas visit schedule.
