|
|
The average income of lawmakers hit a record low yen22.23 million in 2009, down yen2.6 million from the previous year, according to data released June 30 by the Diet. Cuts in benefits and the lack of major land and stock sales are believed to have caused the fall to a level unseen since both the House of Representatives and House of Councilors started releasing financial statements of lawmakers in 1993.
