Ibaraki prefecture council posted on blog posture of dozing parliament, closing out by revising attendance rules



Due to the lawmakers who snoozed at the Ibaraki prefectural assembly, they took pictures and posted them on the blog and criticized them. As a result, some prefectural councils who saw the blog said that "it is appropriate as an audience purpose" and as a result It seems that it will come into force to enforce a new interview rule from the 8th of this month. According to it, photograph shooting and recording by the audiences are limited to "media stakeholders belonging to the prefectural police reporters club" and "those who are deemed necessary from the public interest point of view". Moreover, regarding the latter, it seems to be "municipal spokeswoman and associate official".

I do not know the desire to avoid shameing my inner life to the outside, but is there any way that I should do before I take such a method?

The blog which became the origin of the problem is from the following.
First of all, Kyodo News and the Asahi Shimbun reported on this case as follows.

Doze sleeping photo blog restricted access to the Ibaraki prefectural assembly, presentation of identification cards

Men created blogs. I had the theme of Ibaraki airport scheduled to be opened in March 2010 and also picked up the regular prefectural assembly in June heard. He posted a picture of some prefectural members who fell asleep and commented that "I was sleeping all over the clock" and "irresponsible Jijii".

A blog created by a man resident in Tokyo was regarded as a problem. Men also posted many articles on the theme of Ibaraki airport and took up the June Regular Prefectural Assembly who heard him. He commented on the prefectural assembly and prefectural executive words at the standing committee and posted a picture of the prefectural assembly that fell asleep.

Some prefecture councils who saw the blog raised a voice saying "Is it appropriate as an audience purpose?", And movements to amend the attendance rules began to appear. According to the Council Secretariat, the man got permission to shoot the plenary for the purpose of "for the purpose of documentation" but said he did not apply for permission for the standing committee.

According to the revised regulations, photo shoots and recordings by audiences are limited to press associates belonging to the prefectural government journal club and "limited to those who are deemed necessary from the public interest point of view". The latter keep in mind the municipal public relations officials and associate officials.

According to the new regulation, even if a man wishes to bring in a camera or take a picture for the purpose of "for the purpose of documents", he will treat it as "not permitted in the future" (Council Secretariat).

The amendment is a proposal by the Chair, and it is said that the amendment has been decided without the vote of the delegates. Because the Local Autonomy Law stipulates "the principle of opening a meeting", it means that it is a diversion policy that goes against it.

So, the blog below is the source of this problem.

The content I am writing is quite awkward, but it seems that it is not enough to regulate Congression's listening. The person who wrote the blogcommentaccording to,

For this matter, I think that I will put together my thoughts at a later date. However, this blog is a blog of Ibaraki Airport and LCC, it is not a blog of politics and administrative criticism. I wonder how far we will write and how far we will take action. However, in this case, if I suffer disadvantage in practice, I am thoroughly ready to condemn, "Ibaraki is a politically backward prefecture" and beat up. I think that I would like to solve this problem more gently than that.

So depending on things and further it is likely to be further developed.

In addition, there are other opinions on this case as well as the following.

H - Yamaguchi.net: Is not it an appropriate listening aim

Of course, the reporters belonging to the press club are not regulated to shoot. However, it is meant that it is expected that "amateurs are troubled because they do not read the air, but if they are professional reporters, it is long association, so some things will be overlooked". In other words, professional reporters belonging to the press club are licked to be amateurs in that they convey facts. Is not it a problem related to honor as a presser?

Or will they "self-regulate" according to politicians' expectations?

In the future, I am hoping for how much the existing mass media will be dropped by the Ibaraki prefectural assembly. I support you.
