It is expected that Siv Fridleifsdottir parliamentarian of the progressive party, speaks for a bill regarding ministers to step down from Althingi while they are in ministerial office.

Siv set the bill forward as well as other parliamentarians from the progressive party, independence party and popular front party. It has been served five times before. In a report with the bill says that it is intended to sharpen the three parts of the government.

It is expected that the execution will be that at the same time as the president has set a parliamentarian to a minister is the alternate person supposed to take his seat in the parliament. The minister has the right to have his seat again in the parliament as soon as he steps down from being a minister if the parliament has not been discontinued and called for new elections.

The bill is the seventh matter on the agenda today.
