He recalled that with which proposals should be implemented through amendments to the Constitution, and which - by other acts, it remains to be decided.
Earlier it was reported that by the second reading of the bill on amendments to the Constitution of Russia amendments were made to the immunity of the former presidents of the country and the responsibility of the prime minister to the head of state for the work of the cabinet.
On February 13, Russian leader Vladimir Putin called the number of proposals for amendments to the Constitution a serious challenge.
The deadline for submitting amendments to the relevant bill was extended until March 2.
