How the State Duma worked for three weeks after the start of the special operation

Since the beginning of the Russian special operation in Ukraine, the State Duma has considered 51 bills, passing 13 of the 19 approved legislative acts in three readings in one day. 31 bills were approved in the first reading, one was rejected. In total, the lower house of parliament held three plenary sessions in three weeks - on March 4, 10 and 11.

Of the 19 approved bills, 18 were introduced by the government. Their texts were received by the Duma the day before the meeting. On March 4, the first package of anti-crisis measures was adopted, on March 11, the second, and now the third is being prepared for adoption, the State Duma reported.

In total, from February 24 to March 16, 68 bills were submitted to the State Duma. This dynamic is comparable to the period before the parliamentary elections, political scientist Pavel Sklyanchuk noted.

The deputies also adopted ten resolutions, mainly on procedural issues - on invitations to ministerial meetings, a plan for holding a government hour, and so on. However, there were exceptions - for example, a resolution on the appeal of the State Duma to the UN "on the need to investigate the activities of biological laboratories in Ukraine" or on consent to refer the case of the deputy from the Communist Party of the Russian Federation Valery Rashkin to the COURT.
