Per savivaldybių tarybas ir savivaldybių merus · Through municipal councils and municipal mayors

Английский: Through which institutions is the right to self-government implemented?

Tai galiojanti 119 straipsnio redakcija. Oficialus angliškas puslapis dar neatspindi 2022 m. pakeitimo dėl savivaldybių merų, todėl angliškas klausimo tekstas yra lietuviško klausimo paaiškinamoji atitiktis, o ne oficialios angliškos redakcijos citata.

This is the current wording of Article 119. The official English page does not yet reflect the 2022 mayoral amendment, so the English question is an explanatory counterpart to the Lithuanian question, not a quotation from the official English text.

Ketveriems metams · Four years

Английский: For what term are members of municipal councils and municipal mayors elected?

Jie renkami visuotine, lygia ir tiesiogine rinkimų teise, slaptu balsavimu; merais gali būti renkami Lietuvos Respublikos piliečiai.

They are elected by universal, equal, and direct suffrage by secret ballot; municipal mayors are elected from among citizens of the Republic of Lithuania.

Laisvai ir savarankiškai · Freely and independently

Английский: How do municipalities act within the competence defined by the Constitution and laws?

Konstitucijoje taip pat nustatyta, kad valstybė remia savivaldybes.

The Constitution also provides that the State supports municipalities.

Įstatymo numatytose ribose ir tvarka nustatyti vietines rinkliavas · To establish local levies within the limits and according to the procedure provided for by law

Английский: What right do municipal councils have in relation to local levies?

Savivaldybės sudaro ir tvirtina savo biudžetą, o jo sąskaita tarybos gali numatyti mokesčių bei rinkliavų lengvatas.

Municipalities draft and approve their budgets, and councils may provide tax and levy concessions at the expense of their own budgets.

Į teismą · To a court

Английский: Where may municipal councils and municipal mayors apply regarding a violation of their rights?

Galiojanti lietuviška redakcija aiškiai apima ir savivaldybių merus; oficialus angliškas puslapis tebepateikia ankstesnę redakciją, kurioje minimos tik tarybos.

The current Lithuanian wording expressly includes municipal mayors; the official English page still presents the earlier wording mentioning only councils.

Vyriausybės skiriami atstovai · Representatives appointed by the Government

Английский: Who supervises whether municipalities observe the Constitution and laws and execute Government decisions?
