Deputy Chairman of the Agency for Strategic Planning and Reforms of the Republic of Kazakhstan Aigul Shaimova spoke about measures to de-bureaucratize the activities of the state apparatus, Kazpravda.kz reports.
“The Decree of the President “On measures to de-bureaucratize the activities of the state apparatus” drew attention even to such a moment as the need to reduce the purchase of paper and the costs associated with it. Moreover, these costs will be reduced three times. In general, the measures provided for by the decree will encourage government agencies to ensure a paperless environment and shift the focus to the digital format of interaction,” Aigul Shaimova said.
According to her, as part of the digitalization of public services, back in the early 2000s, the task was set to switch to a complete paperless document flow. However, until now, many documents are generated in electronic format, and also duplicated in paper form. For example, in the rule-making there is a requirement to form draft legal acts in the information system, as well as to collect “live” visas on paper.
