MONITORING THE IMPLEMENTATION OF DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES IN LAW ENFORCEMENT AND LAW-MAKING (MONITORING LEGISLATION)

Abstract

The article examines the theoretical and legal foundations as well as the practical aspects of monitoring the introduction of digital technologies into law-making and law enforcement activities in the Republic of Kazakhstan. The relevance of the topic is determined by the large-scale digital transformation of state institutions, which affects both the legislative process and judicial and administrative practice. The purpose of the study is to identify the specific features of the national model of digitalization and to define directions for improving legal monitoring. The methodological basis is formed by systemic and comparative-legal approaches, together with an analysis of national legislation, international indices, and foreign experience. The study found that the digitalization of Kazakhstan’s legal system is of a comprehensive nature: the development of electronic justice, the introduction of the «Judicial Office» platform, the digitalization of notarial and advocacy activities are accompanied by reforms of procedural legislation and the strengthening of guarantees for personal data protection. At the same time, key challenges have been identified, including digital inequality, data leakage risks, and regulatory uncertainty regarding the use of artificial intelligence. The scientific novelty of the article lies in its comprehensive consideration of legal monitoring as an instrument ensuring the adaptation of legislation to the challenges of the digital age. The practical significance of the research consists in developing recommendations for improving the national legal framework in accordance with international standards and best practices.
