The former head of the Ministry of Regional Development Igor Slyunyaev, the agency which President Vladimir Putin abolished, may be mandated by the State Duma deputy. On this “News” reported a source close to Slyunyayev and confirmed the source of the “United Russia”, which list in the Duma elections in 2011 in Kostroma region headed by the Minister. Experts believe that the mandate of the deputy – a consolation prize to the official, the loser in the hardware fight stronger competitors.

– Government – not a rigid structure, it should be changed – said Monday morning at a meeting with Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, Dmitry Medvedev, who has made a number of proposals to the President to optimize the structure of the government. According to him, for the last time in the White House were created by governments that deal with economic and social problems on a territorial basis. Namely: the Ministry of Development of the Far East, the Ministry of the Crimea and the Ministry of Development of the North Caucasus.

– We have, in fact, went to the territorial principle of management that gives some results. Maybe, as long as their is not much, but it makes sense. Plus there was a ministry that deals with matters of construction. Thus, a significant part of the responsibility of the Ministry of Regional Development was razverstana between new ministries – said the president of Prime, according to which to reflect these changes the existence of Regional Development impractical.

Its functions Medvedev would like to distribute between the Economic Development, the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Construction. At the same time Prime Minister proposed to abolish the two other structures – Rosoboronzakaz and Rosoboronpostavki.

– Good. We have already discussed this before. If you consider that it is appropriate, then let’s do it, – Vladimir Putin agreed.

Himself slobbering caught the president’s decision to exit the college department in St. Petersburg. It was announced an hour before the event, which then chose to leave early some governors, but his minister still held.

– Throughout its existence, the ministry was important and relevant executive authority. It is important that during the transitional period those developments, the experience that has been accumulated, were handed over to colleagues – have reacted to the news was out of the official himself.

Since the establishment of the Regional Development Ministry in 2004 was the sixth Slyunyaev its head after the Vladimir Yakovlev (2004 2007), Dmitry Kozak (2007 2008), Victor Basargin (2008 2012), Vladimir Tokarev (04.2012 21.05.2012) and Oleg talker (21.05.2012 17.10 .2012). The main functions of the Ministry were to develop state policy and legal regulation in the sphere of socio-economic development of Russian regions and municipalities; separation of powers between the federal executive authorities, executive authorities of subjects and local authorities; development of the state national policy and international relations.

– The question arose repeatedly in the Regional Development Ministry. Since 2012, due to problems in the department changed three ministers. The question seemed to been solved, but its implementation took time. Slyunyayev with the head of government, of course, all to discuss not only the abolition of, the transfer of the remaining functions of departments, but also the fate of the minister. As far as I know, he was offered a place in the State Duma, – the “Izvestia” a source in the government.

– Discussions on the reorganization of the Ministry of Regional walked from November last year, after most of the powers were transferred to the newly established Ministry of Construction and Housing. After the practice of forming special authorities that are concerned with areas of advanced development, continued – after Minvostokrazvitiem appeared Ministry in the North Caucasus and the Crimea, it became apparent that elected a new strategy for implementing government policy on socio-economic development of the Russian Federation, – said the head of the Fund development of civil society Konstantin Kostin.

According to him, now this strategy is a point, focusing on the specific nature of the clusters.

– The need for administrative superstructure simply disappeared. Any serious load on the other institutions of the executive power in connection with the replacement and realignment of functions of Regional Development will not happen, – said the expert.

Igor himself Slyunyaev for comments can not be reached. In his press service of “Izvestia” reported that in the near future Minister himself will announce everything, including his plans for future employment.

As told “Izvestia” a source in the “United Russia”, Slyunyaev can count on the mandate of the deputy of the State Duma of the Kostroma region, where in 2011 he led the regional list of the “United Russia”, as governor of the region . Then he handed over its mandate to the second on the list of party members, now a State Duma deputy Valery Gal’chenko.

– If Gal’chenko refuses to mandate that Slyunyaev can get a seat in the Duma. According to the charter party, he could not have done it if refused it twice: in addition Gal’chenko handed over to someone else, – the “United Russia”.

However, the party does not exclude that Slyunyayev can be transferred vacant mandate and any other State Duma deputy, who after the election on September 14 will go to work in the Federation Council.

In the struggle for influence within the government Slyunyaev not proved successful political player not able to retain the function departments, had not built a relationship with the presidential administration. Therefore, if we follow the logic hardware solutions, some place for him to be found, but it is unlikely there will be any high position, – the vice-president of the Center for Regional Studies Rostislav Turovsky.

According to him, n a marketing post can formally be regarded as a status, but is unlikely to be the position from which something depends . Too sad was the story of Regional Development in the years when it was headed by Slyunyaev, said Rostislav Turovsky.

– Ministry of Regional Development was a convenient communication platform for the regional elites. But, on the other hand, this agency has been difficult to find a niche, which is why for a long time there was talk that the Office for the development of regions involved in all but regional development – building, housing and so on, – explains the reasons for the failure of the head of the fund Slyunyayev “St. Petersburg’s policy” Mikhail Vinogradov. According to him, when the agency took all previously defined functions, and the internal politics has become shorted to the presidential administration, the meaning of its continued operation just disappeared.
