A new basis for the early termination of the powers of a senator and a deputy is the identification of foreign citizenship or non-compliance by the senator-representative of the region with the requirements for the period of residence in the territory of the subject of Russia.
On December 16, the Federation Council approved a law according to which the powers of a State Duma deputy or a senator were to be terminated if foreign citizenship is revealed.
Previously, the powers of a parliamentarian could be terminated only if foreign accounts and deposits were identified with him.
