    Question

    About exclusion from the Public Council?

    Answer

    Termination of powers of the member of the Public Council is part of the Law of November 2, 2015 "On public councils" (hereinafter – the Law). Thus, a member of the Public Council may resign from the Public Council at his own request by submitting an application in writing to the Public Council where he is a member. In addition, a member of the Public Council may be prematurely excluded from its membership by a decision of the Public Council in case of inability to participate in its work for health reasons or on other grounds provided for in paragraph 1 of Article 10 of the Law. This means that a member of the Public Council must not have a criminal record, must not be found guilty of committing a corruption crime and / or a corruption offense in accordance with the procedure established by law, and must not be registered with health organizations for mental illness, alcoholism, drug addiction or substance abuse. Thus, the power to exclude or terminate the powers of members is assigned to the Public Council itself.
