Draft law on financial reporting by NGOs adopted in third reading

The draft law on financial reporting by NGOs was adopted in the third reading. The document was approved today at a meeting of the Parliament of Kyrgyzstan.

At least 83 deputies voted for it, 10 — against.

On March 4, the Parliament adopted in the first reading amendments to the law on NGOs, which oblige non-profit organizations to report on the sources of their funding. Human rights activists called it discriminatory and asked the initiators to withdraw the bill.
