According to the legislation on public councils, two-thirds of the total number of Council members are representatives of civil society, who represent various segments of the population.
This ratio has shown its effectiveness over the years, so this ratio is left unchanged in the draft law developed by the Ministry.
At the same time, it is proposed to elect the head of the Working group on the formation of councils from among representatives of civil society.
The procedure for election to the councils proposed by the bill is very accessible to the common man.
Every citizen has the right to submit an application and submit documents.
Every citizen can nominate a candidate by self-nomination (article 9, paragraph 1, of the draft law).
In addition, citizens can be nominated by non-profit organizations, which allows them free access to be elected to membership of public councils.
