DUSHANBE, March 4, 2010, Asia-Plus — The last 24th session of the outgoing Majlisi Milli (Tajikistan’s lower chamber of parliament) of the third convocation took place in Dushanbe on March 4.
The Majlisi Milli members seconded a number of laws requiring amendments to some laws of the country.
Thus, under amendments to the RT Law “On Normative and Legal Acts,” now all legislative and other normative acts adopted in Tajikistan will be published in the Tajik language only.
Presenting the amendments, the Majlisi Milli member Mehmon Bakhti noted that those acts had previously been published in the Tajik and Russian languages. “With adoption of the law on the state language that went into effect in the country last year, there is no such necessity any more,” MP Bakhti said.
According to him, the law states that in case of necessity normative and legal acts and official papers may be translated into other languages.
The upper house of the parliament also considered and seconded changes and addenda made to the RT law “On the Agency for State Financial Control and Combating Corruption” requiring abolishing the transportation anticorruption directorate.
The Majlisi Milli also seconded a number of amendments made to the country’s administrative code.
