Local government changes: new rules for removing mayors and deputies

The act introduces new rules for dismissing deputy mayors together with mayors when a mayor's term ends prematurely. It also specifies who takes over mayoral duties after dismissal or resignation. The changes also cover employment rules for persons appointed by the Prime Minister to serve in local government.
Key points
If a mayor loses their mandate before the end of term, their deputy automatically loses their position.
When a mayor leaves, their deputy takes over duties – if there is no deputy, the Prime Minister appoints a new person within 7 days.
Persons appointed by the Prime Minister to manage municipalities will be employed by appointment, with salaries set by the Prime Minister.
The election commissioner immediately confirms the expiration of mandates for mayors or councilors in certain cases.
