According to Prokopieva, the powers of the Assembly of Deputies of the new convocation begin from the moment of the first session, which must be scheduled no later than 30 days from voting day. At the session, the chairman of the regional Assembly and his deputies will be elected, and after that the list of committees will be approved and their chairmen will be elected. Deputies will also have to elect their representative to the Federation Council.
“Now work on the budget is in full swing, and the deputy corps should be involved in this process, since it is legislators who set priorities when forming the budget, taking into account the interests of residents of the Arkhangelsk region,” Prokopyeva noted. She added that the new composition will continue the initiatives of its predecessors, for example, work on the most important bill on war children and enshrining social support measures for veterans at the legislative level.

The region was also among the leaders in terms of the level of competition in elections to the legislative assembly.
In total, 47 deputies are represented in the Arkhangelsk Regional Assembly, 24 were elected in single-mandate constituencies, 23 in a single electoral district or according to party lists.
