Mirziyoyev proposes to establish post of representative of Cabinet of Ministers in Oliy Majlis

Speaking at the solemn ceremony dedicated to the 24th anniversary of Constitution, Mirziyoyev said: “The principle of supremacy of law enshrined in our Constitution stands as an important guarantee in ensuring the human rights and freedoms in our society, and efficacy of all reforms.”

“Nearly 400 integral laws adopted in Uzbekistan for over the recent years legally regulate all spheres of our life and serve to ensuring the human rights and interests. Along with this, when we speak about the integrity, credibility and availability of the direct-action mechanisms of laws, we should note that we have a lot to do in this respect,” he said.

“Unfortunately, at present there are a lack of impact of the laws on the efficiency of reforms and low level of their role in immediate regulation of social relations. We should keep in mind that this state of affairs may lead to distrust in the system of laws of our country on the part of our citizens, businessmen, and let alone, the foreign investors,” the Uzbek leader said.

“I am confident that the respected members of the Legislative Chamber and the Senate will pay a serious attention to this issue. I deem it necessary that while considering these issues, first of all, we should draft the bills thoroughly and at the level of their direct regulation of social relations. Especially, it refers to dramatic cut-down of the departmental regulations,” Mirziyoyev said.

“In this context, with an aim of more efficient cooperation between the government and parliament in the sphere of lawmaking, supervision and analysis, it would be expedient to establish the post of a representative of the Cabinet of Ministers in the Oliy Majlis on a permanent basis,” he stated.

“We do understand that the adoption of laws is just one part of a job. The main issue is to timely communicate the essence and significance of laws to our people and relevant executors; ensure their proper implementation and strict observance of requirements of law,” Shavkat Mirziyoyev noted.

“Unfortunately, the work in this direction isn’t at the due level. As a result of this, during the past three years 157 resolutions of state bodies were adopted based on the outdated laws,” he said.

“Let us think, if the additions introduced into the legislation are not timely communicated to the local level, especially, to the executors who work with them, then what can we say when it comes to their implementation? The only way to effectively tackle this problem is to establish the mechanism, which functions as exact as watches in terms of putting in place the implementation of laws,” Mirziyoyev said.
