Chief Cabinet Secretary Hiromu Nonaka said Wednesday that the Liberal Democratic Party, Liberal Party and New Komeito should consider campaign cooperation for the next Lower House elections to further cement their tripartite ties.

Nonaka's comment came one day after the three parties jointly supported a set of bills to cover the updated Japan-U.S. defense cooperation guidelines in a Lower House vote.
