In August, deputy Ilyukhin asked the Justice Ministry to give a legal evaluation of the fact that, Boris Gryzlov occupies a ministerial post, and is a political party leader, and whether or not that would be prejudicial to the civil service.
As to Gryzlov, he appears quite satisfied with his dual position: at party events he has a chance to lash out at the government and thus he earns popularity points, and then, he is always on TV reporting on his agency’s successful operations against terrorists, ‘turncoats in epaulets’ and other rascals.

 The St. Petersburg Times - Top Stories - Gryzlov Appointed To Shake Up Party
Last week's selection of Interior Minister Boris Gryzlov to a top party post was widely seen as a sign that the country's ruling elite - first and foremost the Kremlin - is not willing to entrust next year's parliamentary elections to United Russia's current leadership and will try to consolidate control of the party.
Gryzlov's position as the country's top cop is only important for him personally, both analysts said, because it gives him control of a powerful ministry and, therefore, political clout.
Korgunyuk even suggested that Gryzlov's unexpected appointment to the Interior Ministry in March 2001 was a strategic attempt by the Kremlin to boost his public image before transferring him back to party work.
