A Sverdlovsk deputy asked to be removed from office early.
Sverdlovsk Legislative Assembly deputy Sergey Nikonov, chairman of the Ecology Committee, has asked to be relieved of his powers, the parliament speaker Lyudmila Babushkina said.
"I propose to include in the draft agenda the question of the early termination of deputy powers of Sergey Vladimirovich Nikonov," Ura.Ru quotes Babushkina as saying.
Nikonov has been a deputy of the Legislative Assembly since 2011. According to a source for Ura.Ru, Nikonov is being prepared for a move to the regional government. Governor Denis Pasler hinted at the transition.
"Sergey is an experienced specialist; he has long served as a deputy and has also worked in executive bodies. I am confident such specialists are needed and in demand — in the government of the Sverdlovsk Region as well," the head of the region said.
Earlier it was reported that two ministers were dismissed from the Sverdlovsk government.
