The Senate Committee on Social and Cultural Development and Science held an extended session where the bill “On Making Amendments and Additions to Some Legislative Acts of the Republic of Kazakhstan on Culture” was considered.
The bill spells out the rules for singers to use phonograms in their performances. It also prohibits any content that contains violence, propaganda of interethnic, religious and race hostility, as well as the cult of violence. All this refers to organizers of mass events and artists.
If the law is passed, organizers of concerts and other mass cultural events will be obliged to inform the public in advance on the use of phonograms during performances of variety artists.
Senators also supported the creation of the National Digital Library for preserving the cultural heritage of the people of Kazakhstan.
The document was submitted to the House for consideration.
