On the "belt-tightening" in the State Duma deputies complained communists. During a meeting of the Communist Party faction, they resented the fact that since January 1, 2014 are forced out of his own pocket to pay for services in the VIP-halls of airports, as well as in the halls of officials and delegations.

For the use of VIP-halls of the deputies have to lay 11 thousand - in the event that they are flying Business Class. If the flight in economy class enjoy the VIP-halls are free. Despite this, according to the deputy Vladimir Pozdnyakov, spoke out against the innovations of representatives of all Duma factions. To defend the right to free access to the VIP-lounges, the Communists promised to get to the State Duma Speaker Sergei Naryshkin. At the same time none of the deputies speak on the topic did not explain what prevents them from using economy class.

The Ministry of Finance in October 2013 informed the MPs that the budget they can only attend public halls for official delegations - in Moscow, St. Petersburg and Sochi. In the VIP-halls belonging to commercial structures, the Ministry of Finance did not want to reserve funds. According to "Kommersant", the State Duma spent on premium service Deputies at airports on 70 million rubles a year.

Special order of transport services, and many other privileges deputies are enshrined in the law "On status of deputy of the State Duma." Parliamentarians free of charge (from the budget) get tickets not only for aircraft (regardless of class of service), but also on trains, ships, coaches, and even helicopters.

It's Deputies - the fleet in Moscow and the Moscow region, owned by the management office of the president. The machine on demand to deputies put and in the region, from which they are elected to the State Duma. However, the flashing lights can use only the chairman of the State Duma and his deputies.

Despite the significant transportation benefits, deputies strongly touched cancellation free VIP-lounges at airports. Andrey Andreev from the Communist Party is confident that it is - a consequence of increasing salaries to officials. In September, the 2013th Russian President Vladimir Putin has significantly increased the allowance of state employees - members of the government, the Central Election Commission, the Security Council and others.

Strictly speaking, the members are not civil servants, but they have the same social benefits as federal ministers; In addition, the speaker of the Duma and his deputies are equal to the Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister respectively. In accordance with the presidential decree, the base salary of MPs from September 1 2013th raised to 32, 9 to 51, 8 thousand rubles. A year later, they will receive a monthly already 81, 5 thousand rubles.

In addition to the base salary, as the source of "Interfax", the deputy put a variety of bonuses and allowances. Every month they receive financial incentives, which previously was 128, 4 thousand rubles, and now has risen to 202 thousand. The total monthly income as a result of people's choices has increased by more than half - from 161 to 253 thousand rubles. In March, the 2013th parliament complained that 160 thousand a month to live hard.

The total cost of the Duma in 2014 against the backdrop of savings in other budget lines increased by eight per cent and amounted to more than eight billion rubles. Of these three billion - salary fund of deputies and their assistants. In total, each of the 450 deputies of the State Duma in the budget laid down over half a million rubles a month. Of this amount, salaries of parliamentarians assistants, each of which may be no more than five, sent to 165,000 rubles.

Another important component of the social package of Deputies - service housing in Moscow. The apartment in the city for three months after the election of parliamentarians to give, do not have their own homes in the capital. They just have to pay utility bills. Deputies also reimburse all the costs of moving and pay half of the monthly salary (and a quarter of the salary - for each family member).

His service apartments deputies sometimes do not leave even after the end of office. In December 2013 the newspaper "Izvestia" wrote that the Office of the President had to turn to the bailiffs to evict from the departmental housing three deputies whose mandate expired in 1990.
Moreover, some members receive service housing in Moscow, even if they have their own apartments in the capital. For example, in the autumn of 2013 it became known that the manager of the president as an exception, to provide housing for the deputy Vyacheslav Lysakova, although he was registered in the Moscow apartment of his former wife. Departmental deputy housing has not left even bought another apartment in the capital, which, by the way, the department of housing policy gave him "according to the official, and not at the market price." "Treshki" in Moscow Lysakova a cost of six million rubles.

State apartments MPs have to leave at the end of the term. However, some benefits for them will remain until his death. All MPs are entitled to a special allowance to a retirement pension. Those who spent the Duma from one year to three years may be eligible for a pension equal to 55 percent of the salary (base part). Deputies have experienced more than three years, the pension will amount to 75 percent of salary. The pensions will be recalculated - at a time when the remuneration of the current deputies once again increase the president.

The special situation of material goods is not limited to deputies. They can use the free connection is obtained for the entire term of the diplomatic passport and government insurance - in the event of injury or death. Vacation parliamentarians is 42 calendar days (versus 28 days for ordinary Russians). Treated deputies and members of their families in departmental clinics and hospitals, where ordinary citizens with the policy of compulsory health insurance the way ordered.
