>__Members of the seven-person Swiss Federal Council should no longer be able to leave office before the end of their term, according to the House of Representatives’ political institutions committee.__
>Parliamentarian Gerhard Pfister, who proposed the idea, pointed out that members of the government are elected for four years after each full renewal of the House of Representatives. In practice, however, resignations during a term of office are not uncommon.
>They are sometimes dictated by partisan tactics, in particular to save a seat. These early elections are synonymous with great turmoil, the committee said.
>Pfister therefore calls for a fixed term of office to guarantee greater calm and stability. Early resignations should only be permitted for extraordinary reasons.
>The issue now goes to the Senate.
> Gerhard Pfister, who proposed the idea
Yeah, why am I not surprised this is coming from him…
I think it’s a terrible idea. If they don’t want the job anymore, they should be able to quit during a term. Imagine a Bundesrat that has mentally checked out from the job…wait, that reminds me of kä Luscht Ueli in his last months.
I have always wondered if Gerhard Pfister related to the furniture brand?
It must be the case for any elected position. If you accept to put your name on a list, you accept that you will do the job for the mandate’s duration. Being elected is a right, but it’s also a responsibility.
Why force someone to keep doing a job if he’s not committed anymore
