President of Kazakhstan received high-ranking officials

Astana, 18 February 2009, (Khabar) - Nursultan Nazarbayev has had a number of working meetings in his capital residency. He also received the chairman of the auditing committee with Omirkhan Oksikbayev reporting on the result of the 2008 budget execution. Despite the ongoing improvements in financial discipline, the auditing committee spotted a number of violations in terms of misuse of budget funds directed to the regions for the implementation of such state programmes as drinking water and housing construction.

Omarkhan Oksikbayev, chairman, counting committee of RK:
- On the whole, I must say that the financial discipline in our country is improving. Compared to 2007, the number of violations we’ve spotted has reduced. There are some improvements in terms of the usage of the budget funds. However, the number of misused budget funds is increasing. I can see a lack of regulation in its use. Since ministries who are handling money, are allowing misuse to occur.


The Minister for Trade and Industry of the Republic was received in the Ak Orda. He informed the head of state about the implementation of the housing and industrial and innovation programmes. In particular, Vladimir Shkolnik reassured Nursultan Nazarbayev that at least 6 breakthrough projects listed as part of the corporate leaders programme will be launched this year. At the end of the meeting, the head of state also congratulated Vladimir Shkolnik on his 60th birthday.
