[Reporter Xie Junlin/Taipei Report] On the 23rd, President of the Legislative Yuan You Xikun convened the ruling and opposition party groups to negotiate the "Special Budget for the Central Government to Strengthen Economic and Social Resilience after the Epidemic and Share Economic Results for All", which is related to the "general cash payment of 6,000 yuan".

Two resolutions were reached during the meeting. The general bill deleted part, and the resolution and the committee deleted 65 million yuan, a total of 120 million yuan was deleted; in addition, the shortfall in the credit insurance fund for small and medium-sized enterprises must be made up in the future.

As for the 10,000 yuan cash proposed by the Kuomintang League, and the deletion of 50 billion yuan injected into Taipower, etc., it is reserved.

The whole case will be read three times after the court votes on the 24th.

The post-epidemic special budget of 380 billion yuan can be roughly divided into three main axes, including: 141.7 billion yuan in general cash, 100 billion yuan in labor and health insurance and Taipower, and 137 billion yuan in strengthening economic and social resilience.

Six committees including the Finance and Finance Committee of the Legislative Yuan concluded the case on the 8th, and reserved 25 cases for negotiation between the ruling and opposition parties.

Dean You convened a consultation between the government and the opposition on the 16th, and the parties and groups decided to vote on the case on the 24th; they negotiated again today and reserved a total of 148 proposals with the committee.

During the negotiation today, Lai Shibao, a legislator of the Kuomintang, stated that less than 100 million yuan should be included in the committee for the entire case. He suggested that after deducting the general cash fee, the remaining part should be deleted in the general bill according to the review method of the general budget.

In this regard, Ke Jianming, chairman of the Democratic Progressive Party of the Legislative Yuan, originally believed that the special budget is for special purposes of the government, and the committee has already approved the deletion of 65 million yuan. I hope that the resolution of the committee will be respected, and it is inappropriate to delete it in a general bill.

However, after discussion, the Democratic Progressive Party group finally made concessions, and the party groups reached two resolutions. The first is to delete 65 million yuan with the committee, and a total of 120 million yuan was deleted through the general proposal. As for the increase of 55 million yuan, the subjects were adjusted by themselves; Second, the shortfall in credit insurance funds for SMEs must be made up in the future.

The rest of the reserved proposals include: 10,000 yuan in cash from the Kuomintang League, appropriation of labor insurance, deletion of 50 billion yuan injected into Taipower, and deletion of 1.35 billion yuan in reserve funds.
