Одна из главных целей нашей Конституции – защита территориальной целостности, Независимости и Суверенитета страны, прав и свобод граждан, гарантия укрепления общественной справедливости и верховенства закона.
На рассмотрение Парламента в ближайшее время будет внесено пять новых конституционных законов – о Президенте, Курултае, Халық Кеңесі, а также статусе столицы и административно-территориальном устройстве страны.
Потребуется системное редактирование еще восьми конституционных законов и более 60 законов, включая основополагающие кодексы.
Законотворческий процесс будет синхронизирован с предстоящими парламентскими выборами, которые планируется провести до открытия новой сессии.
Тотальная трансформация правовой и политической сферы Казахстана продлится в течение всего этого и, возможно, следующего года.

В прошлом году, как вы знаете, состоялась уголовная амнистия, сейчас мы можем провести дополнительную амнистию по ряду уголовных и административных правонарушений, не представлявших угрозы безопасности граждан и государства.
Хочу отметить, что административная амнистия станет первой в истории нашей страны.
Касым-Жомарт Токаев заявил, что общенациональный референдум прошел на самом высоком уровне, открыто и справедливо.
On 15 March, voters in Kazakhstan approved the most comprehensive overhaul of its constitution since its adoption in 1995 under former president Nursultan Nazarbayev. This radical revamp of 80 per cent of the constitution will lay out the future trajectory for Kazakhstan – and provide a legacy for President Kassym Zhomart Tokayev.
Как подчеркнул в своем выступлении Президент страны Касым-Жомарт Кемелевич Токаев, казахстанцы проголосовали за обновление и модернизацию страны.
Kazakh voters have approved a new constitution that may provide President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev with a loophole allowing him to stay in power in the Central Asian energy and minerals giant beyond 2029, exit polls from a referendum on Sunday show.
Я ознакомился с конституциями многих стран и могу с уверенностью сказать, что наш Основной закон стоит в ряду самых прогрессивных
Two exit polls indicate that around 87% of voters backed the new constitution. Turnout stood at 73%, the electoral commission earlier said.
The constitutional changes include a transition to a unicameral parliament, the Kurultai, and the creation of the Halyk Kenesi, a new representative body of citizens.
The new constitution streamlines the country's parliament and re-creates the office of vice president, which was abolished in 1996. It gives the president the authority to appoint the vice president and a host of other key officials.
The president’s new powers mean he will be able to appoint all candidates for the Supreme Court, as well as members of the Constitutional Court, the Supreme Audit Chamber and the Central Election Commission, subject to Kurultai approval.
Furthermore, constitutional amendments will now only be approved through a referendum, rather than by parliament, which the president says will prevent ‘certain political groups’ from amending the constitution.
The constitution's swift drafting had prompted some analysts in Kazakhstan to suggest that Tokayev may be looking to anoint a successor as vice president and leave office early, or to stay in his post with a new constitution resetting his term limits.
Both the old and new constitutions limit presidents to one, seven-year term, a limit introduced by Tokayev in 2022.
The constitutional changes strengthen the power of the presidency and present several possible scenarios for succession.
President Tokayev could use the results of the constitutional referendum as justification for a new seven-year term.
Or he could step down early and assume the position of vice president, with his successor installed as president.
After voting in the capital, Astana, Tokayev was asked by a reporter about whether the constitution would facilitate a coming transfer of power. He said the next presidential election would take place in 2029, when his term ends.
"Some experts suggest that competition for power in Kazakhstan is reportedly intensifying, and that various trends giving rise to concern are on the rise," Tokayev said. "However, there are absolutely no grounds for worry that this will have a negative impact on society."
Opposition to the constitutional rewrite had been marginal, with state-approved pollsters showing large majorities in favor of the new document.
In a rare public statement, Nursultan Nazarbayev, Kazakhstan's president from 1991 to 2019, said he had voted in favor of the new constitution.
"Some time ago, I made the choice to entrust [the presidency] to Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, and I stand by that choice forever. It is my hope that this Constitution will serve the well-being of our Kazakhstan and the welfare of our people."
Kazakh voters in a referendum on Sunday approved a new constitution that may provide President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev with a loophole allowing him to stay in power in the Central Asian energy and minerals giant beyond 2029, exit polls showed.
