At the seventeenth plenary session of the Supreme Council, attention was paid to problems arising in daily life. Unacceptable situations such as fights or pressure on children in kindergartens or schools were raised, as well as cases where social assistance intended for needy people does not reach its recipients.
Adoption of Legislative Measures
In addition to addressing these issues, the Senate adopted laws concerning social work and child protection. The Chairman of the Senate, Tanzila Norboeva, emphasized the need to ensure that social assistance funds and provided benefits reach their rightful recipients, insisting on parliamentary and deputy oversight in this area.
Child Protection and Education
The adopted law on child protection contributes to creating a safe and healthy environment for the child within the education system. Restrictions were introduced on the professional activities of individuals who harm children. As noted by the Chairman of the Senate, heads of every educational institution, teachers, and educators must deeply understand that the value of a child cannot be justified under any circumstances.
