The state Duma Committee on Federal structure and local self-government recommended to reject the bill, allowing to deprive of mandates of regional members for the loss of communication with voters and absenteeism. It is reported Agency city news “Moscow” on Tuesday, April 18.

The document was submitted to the lower house of Parliament on 28 December last year. It was developed by the Council of people’s deputies of the Oryol region.

Oryol legislators propose to oblige the regional MPs to communicate with constituents, in particular, to meet with them at least every six months. In addition, the bill deals with the introduction of compulsory attendance of meetings of the Parliament and its committees. Pass is possible, either for cause, including the travel and disease, or by agreement with management.

Sachs also planned to give the right to early terminate the powers of violators. The authors stressed that such restrictions are already in force for the deputies of the state Duma.
