- cooperation of Kazakhstan with the OECD;

- the rules of the interna.organization of the National Contact Point;

- mechanism for submitting and considering applications to the National Contact Point;

- OECD guidelines for multinational companies.

The speakers of the seminar were:

Nurlan Shokbarbayev - Director of the Investment Policy Department of the Ministry of National Economy of the Republic of Kazakhstan;

Ruslan Sultanov - Chairman of the Management Board of the Economic Research Institute JSC;

Tatiana Zinovich - Member of the National Contact Point, Director of the Public Foundation "Point for Legal Policy Research"


The online seminar was attended by about 40 participants.  Following the results of the seminar, the participants expressed a common opinion on the relevance and timeliness of its holding.
