Simplified procedure: more than 30 applications for the creation of new parties were received

As a result of the amendments to the Constitution, major changes are taking place in the legislative process, which will continue to unfold in the Mazhilis. And the Senate will only have the right to approve or reject the laws adopted by the Mazhilis. Bakhyt Nurmukhanov, Head of the Constitutional Council Office, member of the working group on preparing proposals for amendments and additions to the Constitution of the Republic of Kazakhstan, noted that this is an international practice, new procedures for resolving disagreements between the chambers.

“The next large-scale block is the transition from the form of super-presidential management to the classical presidential management system. The work carried out in this direction should be systematically considered by other measures indicated in the Address. Now the draft states that the President will leave the political party. In the future, staying in a political party will be prohibited not only for presidents, but also for akims and their deputies. Kassym-Jomart Tokayev voluntarily left the party without waiting for the constitutional reform. This increases political competition. After all, as you know, in the future, changes will be made to the law “On political parties”. The procedure for creating a political party is greatly simplified. Currently, more than 30 applications for the creation of new parties have been received. Therefore, it is quite likely that new political forces will appear on the political arena and new deputies will appear in representative bodies,” the speaker said, speaking at the site of the Central Communications Service.
