New deputy to be chosen in Pskov Region to replace Natalya Melnikova
Changes will take place in the composition of the regional parliament in the Pskov Region. Deputy of the Legislative Assembly Natalya Melnikova has resigned early, leaving one of the seats in the legislative body vacant.
Head of the Pskov administration Boris Elkin commented on the situation, explaining how the replacement process will take place. According to him, the final decision on who will take the vacated seat will be made by the United Russia party.
According to established rules, the party must propose a candidate who will represent the interests of voters in place of the departed deputy. This process is a standard procedure for regional parliaments in cases where a deputy leaves their post before the end of their term.
At the moment, the official name of the new deputy has not yet been announced. It is expected that in the near future, party bodies will hold the necessary consultations and present their candidate to the public, who will continue the work in the Legislative Assembly of the Pskov Region.
