ANO leader says regional governors will have to make choice over positions

ANO leader Andrej Babiš has said that he expected party members elected to parliament who are also regional governors to choose between one or other of the functions. Babiš said he would give them some time to make the decision.

The choice could affect three or four ANO members of parliament. Karlovary Vary regional governor Jana Vildumetzová has said thought that she would like to do both jobs, remaining as governor without pay. The governor of the Central Bohemia region, Jaroslava Jermanová, and Olomouc region, Ladislav Okleštěk, face the choice.

The Moravia-Silesia region governor says he has reached an agreement that he perform both functions.
