The decision was announced at a meeting of the Government of Kazakhstan, where the results of legislative work for 2025 were summarized and plans for 2026 were presented.

Last year, out of 22 planned bills, 3 were adopted by deputies and signed by the president, while 5 were passed by parliament and sent for signature. Among them are the laws “On Crime Prevention” and “On Banks and Banking Activities.” The remaining 14 projects were submitted to the Mazhilis of Parliament.

Plans for this year include consideration of bills on state property, online platforms and mass media, as well as new laws on the petrochemical industry, mobilization, and mandatory housing insurance against natural disasters.

Minister of Justice Yerlan Sarsembayev reported on work to improve the lawmaking process. A key direction has been digital transformation and strengthening of analytical functions.

The ministry has moved to a sectoral format of legal monitoring, having already analyzed 80 areas of legislation. In the near future, innovative solutions are planned to be introduced.

One of the key innovations will be the use of an AI agent to support the development and monitoring of laws. According to the government, these technologies should help reduce bureaucracy and increase regulatory transparency.

The AI agent will accompany the full cycle of the process: from idea to implementation and subsequent monitoring.

The introduction of AI into lawmaking follows state trends of recent years. In the second half of last year, the Law “On Artificial Intelligence” was adopted and a specialized ministry was established.

In this context, transparency of AI agent algorithms and clear understanding of who will bear responsibility for AI errors are crucial. Experts from EDF note that the recently adopted Digital Code already contains important norms that must be considered in drafting laws and other legal regulations.

The use of AI in lawmaking could become a competitive advantage for the country if accompanied by independent audits, public oversight, and adherence to human‑centric principles reflected in Kazakhstan’s AI Law.
