ASTANA, Kazakhstan, January 29. Kazakhstan's
Senate has approved a new law aimed at improving security
activities, the circulation of firearms, and housing allowances for
law enforcement agencies, Maxim Spotkay, Head of the Senate
Administration, announced on his social media account, Trend reports.
He noted that the main innovation in the law is the shift
towards more flexible regulation. Overly detailed provisions are
excluded from the law and transferred to government-level acts,
enhancing the efficiency and manageability of regulations.
The new legislation puts the screws to owners of civilian and
service weapons, mandating test firings and requiring the secure
storage of firearms during the downtime of relevant companies.
In the security sector, the law introduces mandatory reporting,
a notification system for suspending and resuming operations, as
well as uniform requirements for the management of private security
organizations.
For the first time, the law officially recognizes the status of
militarized railway security, granting them the right to provide
cargo and facility protection services at terminals involved in
transit rail transportation.
At the same time, the procedure for housing allowances has been
improved: the government now has the authority to regulate these
payments while eliminating the need for mandatory state
registration of rental agreements for recipients.
