Summary/Abstract: A danger of conflict of interests in case of election to a legislative or an executive body of an auxiliary unit exists both with regard to executive positions and all local self-government employees (including councillors). A prohibition of standing for a position in the legislative (or executive) body of the auxiliary unit by a local self-government officer is not admissible, because regulating human rights may be exclusively regulated by statutes. Introducing statutory provisions concerning a formal incompatibility may prevent such conflict of interests. Such problem (conflict of interests) does not exist in case when the local government officer resides and works in different communes.
