The Mazhilis approved amendments regarding culture and education in the first reading during a plenary session, reports Kazpravda.kz
A separate block of amendments is aimed at the development of domestic literature and publishing, as well as the support and preservation of library collections in cultural and educational organizations.
Thus, state libraries are granted the right to provide services for organizing educational and cultural events using their facilities. The funds generated from these services can be utilized by libraries in accordance with the budgetary legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
The draft law also includes a procedure for coordinating the naming and renaming of private educational organizations with the onomastic commission. This is necessary to ensure oversight of the correct spelling of the names of private educational institutions in line with the requirements of language legislation.
