      Regulatory legal acts of state bodies on approval of criteria for risk assessment and risk management, checklists before their approval are subject to coordination with the authorized body for legal statistics and special accounting for the technical possibility of automation of risk assessment and management systems and compliance with the requirements of the information system – the unified register of subjects and objects of inspections.

      The deadline for approval by the authorized body for legal statistics and special accounting is five working days from the date of receipt of the project for approval.

Chapter 2. Formation of a risk assessment and management system during the verification of compliance with the requirements and preventive control of subjects (objects) of control

      4. When carrying out preventive control with a visit to the subject (object) of control and checking for compliance with the requirements, the subject (object) of control belongs to one of the following degrees of risk (hereinafter referred to as the degree of risk):

      1) high risk;

      2) medium risk.

      The frequency of preventive control with a visit to the subject (object) of control is determined by the results of the analysis and evaluation of the information received according to subjective criteria, but not more than twice a year.

      For the areas of activity of subjects (objects) of control classified as high risk, the frequency of inspections for compliance with the requirements is determined by the criteria for assessing the degree of risk, but not more than once a year.

      For the areas of activity of subjects (objects) of control classified as medium risk, the frequency of inspections for compliance with the requirements is determined by the criteria for assessing the degree of risk, but not more than once a year.

      5. The criteria for assessing the degree of risk for carrying out preventive control of the subject (object) of control are formed by determining objective and subjective criteria.

Paragraph 1. Objective criteria

      6. The criteria for assessing the degree of risk for a check of compliance and preventive control of the subjects (objects) of control are formed by determining objective and subjective criteria.

      7. Objective criteria are determined by determining the risk.

      8. Risk determination is carried out depending on the specifics of the area in which state control is carried out, taking into account one of the following criteria:

      1) the level of danger (complexity) of the object;

      2) the scale of severity of possible negative consequences, harm to the regulated sphere (area);

      3) the possibility of an adverse event for human life or health, the environment, the legitimate interests of individuals and legal entities, the state.

      9. After the analysis of possible risks, the subjects (objects) of control are classified according to two degrees of risk (high and medium).

      the high degree of risk includes – advertising distributors;

      the medium degree of risk includes – advertising producers, advertisers.

Paragraph 2. Subjective criteria

      10. The definition of subjective criteria is carried out using the following steps:

      1) database formation and information collection;

      2) information analysis and risk assessment.

      11. The formation of a database and the collection of information are necessary to identify subjects (objects) of control that violate the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

      The following sources of information are used to assess the risk of preventive control with a visit:

      1) the results of previous inspections and preventive control with visits to the subjects (objects) of control;

      2) the presence and number of confirmed complaints and appeals;

      3) the results of preventive control without visiting the subjects (objects) of control (final documents issued following the results of preventive control without visiting the subject (object) of control (certificate, conclusion, recommendations) for compliance with the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan on advertising).

      The following sources of information are used to assess the degree during the checks for compliance:

      1) results of previous inspections;

      2) the presence and number of confirmed complaints and appeals;

      3) the results of preventive control without visiting the subjects (objects) of control (final documents issued following the results of preventive control without visiting the subject (object) of control (recommendations) for compliance with the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan on advertising).

      Footnote. Paragraph 11 - as amended by the Order of the Minister of National Economy of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated 10.05.2023 No. 61 (shall be enforced ten calendar days after the date of its first official publication).

      12. On the basis of available sources of information, regulatory state bodies form subjective criteria to be assessed in accordance with Appendix 1 to the Criteria.

      Footnote. Paragraph 12 - as amended by the Order of the Minister of National Economy of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated 10.05.2023 No. 61 (shall be enforced ten calendar days after the date of its first official publication).

      13. Depending on the possible risk and significance of the problem, the uniqueness or systemic nature of the violation, the analysis of previously made decisions for each source of information, subjective criteria are determined, which, in accordance with the criteria for assessing the degree of risk of the regulatory state body correspond to the degree of violation – gross, significant and minor.

      At the same time, definitions of gross, significant and minor violations are established in the criteria for assessing the degree of risk of the regulatory state body, taking into account the specifics of the relevant area of state control.

      When forming subjective criteria, the degree of violation (gross, significant, minor) is assigned in accordance with the established definitions of gross, significant, minor violations.

Chapter 3. The procedure for calculating the degree of risk according to subjective criteria

      Footnote. The title of Chapter 3 is in the wording of the Order of the Minister of National Economy of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated 10.05.2023 No. 61 (shall be enforced ten calendar days after the date of its first official publication).

      14. To classify the subject of control to the degree of risk, the following procedure for calculating the degree of risk is applied.

      The calculation of the risk index according to subjective criteria (R) is carried out in automated mode by summing the risk index for violations based on the results of previous inspections and preventive control with visits to the subjects (objects) of control (SP) and the risk index according to subjective criteria (SC), followed by normalization of data values in the range from 0 to 100 scores.

      Rprom = SP + SC, where:

      Rprom is an intermediate indicator of the degree of risk according to subjective criteria;

      SP – indicator of the degree of risk for violations,

      SC - an indicator of the degree of risk according to subjective criteria determined in accordance with paragraph 9 of these Criteria.

      The calculation is made for each subject (object) of control of a homogeneous group of subjects (objects) of control of each area of state control. At the same time, the list of assessed subjects (objects) of control related to a homogeneous group of subjects (objects) of control of one area of state control forms a sample set (sample) for subsequent normalization of data.

      Footnote. Paragraph 14 - as amended by the Order of the Minister of National Economy of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated 10.05.2023 No. 61 (shall be enforced ten calendar days after the date of its first official publication).

      14-1. According to the data obtained from the results of previous inspections and preventive control with visits to the subjects (objects) of control, an indicator of the degree of risk for violations is formed, estimated in scores from 0 to 100.

      If one gross violation is detected by any of the sources of information specified in paragraph 11 of these Criteria, a risk score of 100 points is equated to the subject of control and preventive control is carried out with a visit to the subject (object) of control.

      If gross violations are not detected, the indicator of the degree of risk for violations is calculated by the total indicator for violations of a significant and minor degree.

      When determining the indicator of significant violations, a coefficient of 0.7 is used.

      This indicator is calculated using the following formula:

      SРз = (SР2 х 100/SР1) х 0,7, where:

      SРз is an indicator of significant violations;

      SР1 – the required number of significant violations;

      SР2 – the number of significant violations detected;

      When determining the indicator of minor violations, a coefficient of 0.3 is applied.

      This indicator is calculated using the following formula:

      SРн = (SР2 х 100/SР1) х 0,3, where:

      SРн is an indicator of minor violations;

      SP1 – the required number of minor violations;

      SP2 – the number of minor violations detected;

      The indicator of the degree of risk for violations (SP) is calculated on a scale from 0 to 100 points and is determined by summing the indicators of significant and minor violations according to the following formula:

      SР = SРз + SРн, where:

      SP is the indicator of the degree of risk for violations;

      SРз is an indicator of significant violations;

      SРн is an indicator of minor violations.

      The obtained value of the indicator of the degree of risk for violations is included in the calculation of the indicator of the degree of risk according to subjective criteria.

      Footnote. The Rules are supplemented by paragraph 14-1 in accordance with the Order of the Minister of National Economy of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated 10.05.2023 No. 61 (shall be enforced ten calendar days after the date of its first official publication).

      14-2. The calculation of the risk index according to subjective criteria determined in accordance with paragraph 11 of these Criteria is carried out on a scale from 0 to 100 points and according to the following formula:



      xi – indicator of the subjective criterion;

      wi – the specific weight of the indicator of the subjective criterion xi;

      n – the number of indicators.

      The obtained value of the risk indicator according to subjective criteria determined in accordance with paragraph 10 of these Criteria is included in the calculation of the risk indicator according to subjective criteria.

      Footnote. The Rules are supplemented by paragraph 14-2 in accordance with the Order of the Minister of National Economy of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated 10.05.2023 No. 61 (shall be enforced ten calendar days after the date of its first official publication).

      14-3. The values calculated by subjects (objects) for the R indicator are normalized in the range from 0 to 100 points. Normalization of data is carried out for each sample set (sample) using the following formula:



      R is an indicator of the degree of risk (final) according to the subjective criteria of an individual subject (object) of control,

      Rmax – the maximum possible value on the scale of the degree of risk according to subjective criteria for subjects (objects) included in one sample set (sample) (the upper limit of the scale),

      Rmin is the minimum possible value on the scale of the degree of risk according to subjective criteria for subjects (objects) included in one sample set (sample) (the lower limit of the scale),

      Rпром is an intermediate indicator of the degree of risk according to subjective criteria, calculated in accordance with paragraph 14 of these Criteria.

      Footnote. The Rules are supplemented by paragraph 14-3 in accordance with the Order of the Minister of National Economy of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated 10.05.2023 No. 61 (shall be enforced ten calendar days after the date of its first official publication).

Chapter 4. Checklists

      15. Checklists are compiled for homogeneous groups of subjects (objects) of control and include requirements in accordance with paragraph 2 of Article 132 of the Code and in compliance with the conditions defined in Article 143 of the Code.

      16. The checklists are formed according to the form according to Appendix 2 to this order.
