Mazhilis deputy Bakytzhan Bazarbek accused notaries of shielding violators during a parliamentary debate on executive inscriptions. Republican Notary Chamber head Oleg Polumordvinov acknowledged that some notaries lost licenses after a General Prosecutor's Office submission.
The Accusation
Bazarbek claimed that notaries issue executive inscriptions without proper debt verification, enabling illegal collection. He argued that the chamber's leadership protects violators instead of holding them accountable. The deputy's remarks came during a Mazhilis session focused on consumer protection and debt collection practices.
The Admission
Polumordvinov confirmed that the General Prosecutor's Office submission led to license revocations for some notaries. He did not specify the number of licenses revoked but acknowledged systemic issues. The chamber head stated that reforms are underway to tighten oversight of executive inscriptions.
What's Next
The Mazhilis is expected to consider legislative amendments on notary accountability in the coming weeks. It remains unclear whether the chamber will face broader sanctions or regulatory changes.
