Creation of law-enforcement system meeting international standards is impossible without reform of administrative law - Head of OSCE Center in Astana A. Keltchewsky

"In Kazakhstan the situation is quite interesting. We have specialized administrative courts which considers administrative offences and make decisions on them. As for administrative legal disputes they are usually considered by the courts of general jurisdiction", Keltchewsky noted.
