The head of the Council of the Republic, the authorized representative of the President in Minsk Natalia Kochanova spoke about the importance of working with people.
She made the corresponding statement during a meeting with employees of OJSC Planar.
I drew attention to the fact that the upper house of parliament holds receptions on personal matters.
Questions, suggestions, wishes
According to Kochanova, there is a “huge number of requests” coming in from Belarusians.
Since April 4, 2024, as soon as we were elected and began our work, we have received more than 3,000 appeals from citizens, Belta quotes the politician as saying.
She noted that 590 meetings were held in work collectives and with the population at their place of residence, as well as 139 direct telephone lines.
We try to actively work with people, listening to their suggestions and wishes, said the Chairperson of the Council of the Republic.
According to her, they mostly ask personal questions, but they also receive a lot of offers.
Single day of admission
She separately noted that the format of a single day for receiving citizens by members of the Council of the Republic in a specific region has proven itself to be effective.
Not so long ago it was the Grodno region. In all districts and cities of the region, senators hold a reception - on the same day.
Then, in a day or two, an extended presidium is organized with the invitation of regional leaders.
And already in this format, the problems that the residents of this region have are discussed, Kochanova explained.
This is how receptions were held in the Gomel and Grodno regions; a similar event is planned for October in the Mogilev region, and then in the Vitebsk region.
This is how we structure our work with citizens’ requests, noted Natalia Kochanova.
