Legislation on the Status of Parliamentarians of CIS Countries: Prospects for Improvement

The author has attempted to investigate the regulation through constitutional norms of the status of a parliamentarian in member states of the Commonwealth of Independent States. In this paper, the concepts of “deputy” and “parliamentarian” are inherent in various constitutional systems. The study of the properties of “free”, “imperative”, “party”, “professional” mandates of parliamentarians (deputies); grounds for early termination of parliamentary powers. An optimal, in the author’s opinion, model of a document establishing the foundations of the legal status of a member of the CIS member state (Member of Parliament (chamber of parliament), member of chamber of parliament) is proposed.
