In the Duma left of deputies-truants
Moscow. September 20. INTERFAX.RU — Plenary session of the state Duma on Wednesday became the first to record the absence of members only for good reasons, said the Chairman of the lower house of the Parliament of the Russian Federation Vyacheslav Volodin.
“Colleagues, we, in fact, probably the first plenary session, when we are absent (MPs — if) only for good reasons: business trips, in the composition of delegations under the authority of the members of the Duma Council or are in the hospital,” — said Volodin Wednesday opening plenary session.
The head of the Duma Committee on rules Olga Savastianova noted at the beginning of “planarchy” that in accordance with the documents in the hall must be present 422 MP, which was confirmed as a result of the registration.
Previously, when providing such information to Savastianova it was reported that some parliamentarians do not exist in the plenary hall due to the fact that they took “unpaid leave”. Special monitoring visits of parliamentarians began with the seventh convocation of the state Duma.
So, according to the amendments, the absence of “plenary” without adequate explanation entails the deduction of one sixth of the salary of the Deputy. It is calculated taking into account the fact that in a month the Duma, as a rule, holds six plenary meetings.
In addition, Volodin noted that the state Duma will take part the Deputy elected on Bryansk one-mandatory constituency from the liberal democratic party Boris Paikin. He received the mandate of the Deputy from “United Russia”.
Thus, the LDPR faction in the Duma has increased by one member, and the faction “United Russia” was reduced by one Deputy.
