The Central Election Commission has recognized Olena Slobodian (Slobodian) and Andriy Misyats as elected deputies of Ukraine. This occurred after the Verkhovna Rada terminated the powers of Andriy Zhupanin and Ostap Shypailo prematurely. Both new deputies are the next in line candidates on the party list of Servant of the People.
The CEC reviewed documents that were submitted by the Verkhovna Rada about the premature termination of Zhupanin's and Shypailo's powers in connection with their personal statements, as reported by the Central Election Commission. The Commission recognized Olena Slobodian and Andriy Misyats as elected deputies—candidates included in the Servant of the People party list under numbers 166 and 167 respectively.
Both deputies were elected in the extraordinary parliamentary elections on 21 July 2019 year in the nationwide multi-member constituency from the Servant of the People party. For registration as members of parliament, Olena Slobodian and Andriy Misyats must submit to the Commission the documents defined by law no later than the 20-th day. In turn, the CEC must make a corresponding decision on registration no later than the 5-th day from the day these documents are received.
The Verkhovna Rada on 3 September prematurely terminated the powers of Andriy Zhupanin and Ostap Shypailo. A week earlier, the parliament had already attempted to adopt this decision, but the required number of votes was not reached in the chamber. This time, 234 deputies voted for the Zhupanin resolution and 235 deputies for Shypailo, which was enough to adopt both decisions.
Both deputies represented the Servant of the People faction and filed resignations as early as 18 August, without publicly explaining the reasons. The seats vacated after their departure from the parliament will now be filled by the next candidates on the governing party's list.
Earlier, Informator reported that the CEC recognized two new deputies to replace Denys Maslov and Vitaliy Bezgin, who moved to work in the updated government of Serhiy Koretsky. Their mandates were vacated after a broad cabinet reshuffle initiated by President Volodymyr Zelensky.
