Vyacheslav Volodin, speaker of Russia's State Duma, issued an order on October 1 redistributing responsibilities among his deputy speakers, according to Kommersant.
Compared with the previous Duma convocation, the reshuffle involves some changes in the chamber's leadership structure, though most deputy speakers retained their posts from the prior term.
Among the changes, committee oversight assignments were exchanged between some deputy speakers, including officials who kept their overall positions but took on responsibility for different committees than before.
The State Duma is the lower house of Russia's parliament, and its internal leadership structure plays a role in how legislative priorities are managed and which deputy speakers oversee specific policy areas.
The report did not specify detailed reasons behind the particular committee reassignments, though such internal reshuffles are a routine part of organizing the chamber's work at the start of a legislative period.
Volodin has served as State Duma speaker for an extended period and has previously overseen similar organizational adjustments among the chamber's leadership.
