Annual reports on transparency in the extractive industry are published according to the Decree of the President of the country dated July 28, 2020, the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers dated August 10, 2020, and the Resolution of the State Statistics Committee dated February 25, 2021. [...] The responsibility for subsoil use and the extractive industry was borne by the State Committee of Industry, Energy and Subsoil Use of the Kyrgyz Republic which changed to the State Agency of Geology and Subsoil Use at the Ministry of Energy and Industry of the Kyrgyz Republic, which in turn was replaced by the Ministry of Natural Resources, Ecology and Technical Supervision of the Kyrgyz Republic. [...] On the website of current authorized body (the Ministry of Natural Resources, Ecology and Technical Supervision of the Kyrgyz Republic) there is no information on the issued licenses, although this data is published on the website of the body that no longer exists (the State Agency of Geology and Subsoil Use at the Ministry of Energy and Industry of the Kyrgyz Republic). [...] The Ministry of Natural Resources, Ecology and Technical Supervision of the Kyrgyz Republic is considering the possibility of gradual disclosure of an access to existing license agreements and contracts through expansion and improvement of the website of the relevant public authority. [...] In order to advocate the adoption of legislation, it is important to develop a constructive dialogue with all participants of the process and systematically explain the role and importance of the EITI, as well as the specifics of practical implementation of the EITI Standard.
