The Mazhilis, a Lower House of
the Kazakh Parliament, has concluded the second session of its eighth
convocation. During this period, the Mazhilis members passed 100 laws, with every
third law being initiated by them. These include the Constitutional Law on the
Judicial System, as well as laws on ensuring women’s rights and children’s
safety, the National Fund for Children, subsoil use, and mass media. Throughout
the current session, over 300 issues were deliberated, and more than 500
parliamentary inquiries were submitted. MPs also met with nearly 2,500
citizens.
«The parliamentary session is
coming to a close. There will be a two-month break only in law-making
activities. MPs are looking forward to trips to the regions and meetings with
the population. The Head of State emphasized the importance of this work. This
presents a great opportunity to learn about the aspirations of our citizens.
These actions will have a positive impact on the next session, serving as the
foundation for new legislative initiatives and parliamentary inquiries,» Mazhilis
Chairperson Yerlan Koshanov said.
