The government Friday submitted its second extra budget for the year, worth ¥2 trillion, to pay for disaster relief and reconstruction after the March 11 quake and tsunami in the Tohoku region.

Prime Minister Naoto Kan's Cabinet approved the supplementary budget, which won't require issuing new bonds. Instead, unspent funds will be diverted from the fiscal 2010 budget.

The spending package may be enacted as early as July 22 with support from the Liberal Democratic Party and New Komeito, the top opposition parties.
