Sergei Tsivilev, acting head of the Kemerovo region after the resignation of Aman Tuleyev, began the formation of a new administration. He removed from his post the vice-governor for the coordination of the work of law enforcement agencies and military authorities Alexei Kozhevin, the deputy governor for health Valeriy Tsoi, responsible for the agro-industrial complex Elena Zhidkov and the curator of the housing and communal services Dmitry Kudryashov. The rest of the team of the predecessor, from Monday, April 16, went to work in a new status: Tsivilev made everyone acting. The new composition of the leaders of the Kuzbass will be announced after the formation of the College of the regional administration, which is now fully dismissed. Tsivilev justified his personnel decisions by the fact that the management system of the Kemerovo region needs reorganization. This will help to lead the region into the leaders beyond the Urals.

In the regional administration also told RIA Novosti that in addition to the dismissal orders initiated by Tsivilev, the statement was voluntarily written by the administration of the region's administration Alexander Martusov and the head of the department for the prevention of corruption and other offenses Dmitry Makeev. Sergey Tsivilev was appointed President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin by the head of the Kuznetsk Basin April 1. The former head of the region Aman Tuleyev resigned after a fire in a shopping center in Kemerovo, whose victims were 64 people.
