Astana. September 17. Kazakhstan Today - Deputies of Majilis of Parliament of Kazakhstan during plenary session approved in the first reading Kazakhstan bill on amendments and additions to Water and Criminal Codes concerning security of dams and land improvement, the agency reports.

According to the conclusion of Majilis Committee for Ecology and Nature Management, the bill has been developed to improve water legislation to eliminate legal defect concerning safety of dams and land improvement.

During the discussion of the bill the working group and Majilis Committee found it pointless to introduce amendments to the Criminal Code as the existing norm of article 281 of the Criminal Code of Kazakhstan defines punishment for the act provided initially by the bill.

"As a result, the working group made a decision to join two bills into one with the new name on amendments and additions to Water Code of Kazakhstan. The bill on amendments and additions to Water and Criminal Code concerning safety of dams and land improvement has been taken as the basis,' the document explained.
