Summary/Abstract: The opinion relates to the use of the term “occasional “ in the context of provision of office space to a Deputy for meetings with voters. This cannot apply to fixed, regular meetings of a Member of Parliament with voters, but only occasional, irregular work on duty. Even if governmental or local administration authorities are obliged to provide premises for the duration of such occasional work, the way (form) in which such premises are provided is at the discretion of these authorities, which means possibility – but not a necessity – to provide office space without charge.
