A representative of the CHR in Mangistau region helped children from a large family to get disability registration

A single mother and her children were living in unsatisfactory housing and living conditions, and the woman and her two children were in need of disability registration. Moreover, it turned out that their grandmother, born in 1958, who lived with them, had not yet been granted a pension, as she lacked documents confirming her work record.

Having examined the living conditions, the representative of the Ombudsman contacted the Health Department, and the mother and her children are currently undergoing a medical examination.

In order to provide assistance within the framework of the law, the possibility of providing comprehensive support for this family is currently under consideration.

Note that in accordance with Article 7 of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, ratified by the Republic of Kazakhstan on 20 February 2015, States Parties shall take all necessary measures to ensure the full enjoyment by children with disabilities of all human rights and fundamental freedoms on an equal basis with other children.
