Five members of the Seimas withdrew from oblivion two stages of the draft Law on the Statute of Signatories of the Lithuanian Independence Act, which provides for the legalization of the annuities of former Seimas members.
J.Liesys leaves politics
J. Liesys, a representative of the Liberal Movement who was not elected to the new Seimas, proposed to modify the project and provide income not only to former representatives of the nation, but also to former heads of government.
The Liberal Movement, currently participating in the coalition negotiations, has distanced itself from this proposal and J. Liesys has been left behind by the party.

He reported that he left and the faction of the Liberal Movement of the Seimas, and the party and withdrawing its proposal.
“I have already delivered today (request to leave the party – 15min) and I will withdraw the offer. One outside is not a soldier “, – Thursday 15 minutes commented on politics.
“Who needs a fuss that I think is useless? The guarantees of the Seimas members should be resolved in another way,” he added.
It is clear from the legal basis of the Seimas that the parliamentarian has already withdrawn his proposal.
J.Liesys regretted having to leave the party with which he has a long history.
He must sacrifice himself for the good future of other members of the Seimas or not interfere now.
“It is painful to accept, because I have been invited to the Ozala party since 1998 for eternal rest, a liberal, but I have to sacrifice for the good future of other members of Seimas or not hinder the party, especially in this difficult moment.” policies.
In essence, Andrius Mazuronis, Mindaugas Puidokas, Valentinas Bukauskas and Artūras Skardžius, who was no longer elected to the Seimas, registered the same proposal as J. Liesys, only with a different wording: the writing of the Prime Minister.
A confusing way to legalize rent
“The bill amending and complementing the Law on the status of signatories to the Lithuanian Independence Act provides for the legalization of the rental of a former member of the Seimas.
We would suppose that this, as there is no legalized social guarantee for former heads of government, determines in part the low participation of people with adequate experience in this activity in the state administration, ”the parliamentarians explained when presenting the proposal.
A. Mazuronis assured that he will not rush to consider the proposal.
We will do nothing to expedite the consideration of the bill.
“We will do nothing to expedite the consideration of the bill, as the Committee on Budgets and Finance should do when it decides that it is appropriate to consider amendments, this bill. He has been on the Budget and Finance Committee for 10 years, ”said the politician.
And he said he wanted to emphasize this and that: “I and I have registered the rent for the Prime Minister. We do not support the income of Seimas members. “

But that disagreement was not revealed in any way: A. Mazuronis and his colleagues were able to exclude the aspiration to legalize the income of the former member of Seimas from the 2007 project, but they did not do so and did not register such a proposal.
And in general, politicians could have gone the simplest way: to register a new bill on the status of the signatories of the Lithuanian Independence Act, which is not related to the legalization of the income of the members of the Seimas.
Has no sense
Ramūnas Karbauskis, the leader of the Peasants, assured that the rulers would not address the issue of the income of outgoing members of the Seimas and prime ministers.
“We are not going to consider them, there is nothing to comment on. There is such an initiative from the members of Seimas, but our faction does not see the sense,” he told reporters at Seimas on Thursday.

The fact that the two stages – presentation and consideration – of the amendments to the draft bill are intended to equate the former and newly elected parliamentarians with the Seimas of the Independence Law establishing the same privileges for them, previously announced Delfi.lt.
A similar initiative emerged in 2007, but following a wave of criticism, members of the Seimas did not legalize the rents.
