“They (the bill actually. - RT ) did not submit because there are no reviews. The bill is considered undelivered, ”he said.

According to the parliamentarian, the authors amended the Criminal Code together with the Code of Administrative Offenses with one bill, which is also prohibited.

To the clarifying question whether the committee will return the bill to the authors, Krasheninnikov answered in the affirmative.

“Of course, we cannot do otherwise,” he emphasized.

However, he believes that the introduction of this bill is a PR move, and its authors are aware of how to introduce draft laws.

Earlier, the Just Russia party’s press service said the faction’s deputies submitted a draft law to the lower house of parliament, which could face up to five years for drug propaganda and, if such actions were carried out using the media and the Internet, seven years old.
