NGO DATABASE
In 2015, norms were introduced for the organization oft he NGO Database. Mandatory reporting by NGOs to the Database and administrative liability for its violation have been introduced.
As of 2023, 5 191 NGOs submitted information to the NGO Database for the reporting year 2022 in a timely manner.
Information is provided until March 31 via mail or on purpose on paper and electronic media (CD-disks or USB flash drives in Word format) or through the Internet portal of the NGO Database (http://infonpo.gov.kz).
Despite the quarantine measures related to the coronavirus pandemic, the state provided all the necessary opportunities for the participation of representatives of civil society, the expert community, as well as international organizations in the development and discussion of the law, including through the use of online formats. All stages of the development and discussion of this law were widely covered in the media and social networks.
About 20 hearings were held in 9 cities of Kazakhstan (Nur-Sultan, Almaty, Karaganda, Kokshetau, Pavlodar, Petropavlovsk, Uralsk, Ust-Kamenogorsk and Shymkent) with the involvement of the public, representatives of civil society and the media.
Two separate presentations were held for representatives of foreign embassies and international organizations, including the OSCE, the European Union, the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights' Regional Office for Central Asia, and others.
Representatives of non-governmental organizations, international experts, heads of diplomatic missions of foreign States, members of the National Council of public trust and the media actively participated in the discussion of the law in the Parliament. In particular, a round table was held under the chairmanship of the Speaker of the Mazhilis of the Parliament of the Republic of Kazakhstan, which was attended by more than 100 NGOs in the regions of the country. At the end of each stage of discussion, the law was amended. The adopted law is more than half different from its first version, and these changes were taken into account taking into account the views of representatives of the civil sector.
According to the legislation on public councils, two-thirds of the total number of Council members are representatives of civil society, who represent various segments of the population.
This ratio has shown its effectiveness over the years, so this ratio is left unchanged in the draft law developed by the Ministry.
At the same time, it is proposed to elect the head of the Working group on the formation of councils from among representatives of civil society.
The procedure for election to the councils proposed by the bill is very accessible to the common man.
Every citizen has the right to submit an application and submit documents.
Every citizen can nominate a candidate by self-nomination (article 9, paragraph 1, of the draft law).
In addition, citizens can be nominated by non-profit organizations, which allows them free access to be elected to membership of public councils.
The NGO database is an information database formed in order to ensure the transparency of the activities of non-governmental organizations and to inform the public about them, as well as for use as part of placing a state social order, providing grants and awarding prizes.
