Moreover, taking into account the specific nature of the conclusion of an employment contract - for the term of office of the representative body of the municipality that has decided to appoint a person to the position of head of the local administration, it is proposed to establish that if, during the period of office, the head of the local administration reaches 70 years of age, he will continue to exercise powers on the basis of the contract until the expiration of the established term.
A bill has been introduced in the State Duma to raise the maximum age for the head of the local administration from 65 to 70, according to gursesintour.com.
Representatives of the Kaluga Region Legislative Assembly today introduced a bill to the State Duma to increase the retirement age limit for local government leaders to 70 years.
The amendments are planned to be put into effect on the day of the official publication of the relevant law and will apply to municipal employees appointed to the position of head of the local administration under a contract on the day the document comes into effect.
These changes will allow local government bodies in municipalities, and especially in rural areas, to retain more qualified personnel, according to Kaluga legislators.
