Work with citizens' petitions seen as important in Belarus

LIDA, 16 September (BelTA) - Dealing with citizens' petitions remains one of the most important lines of our work. The Belarusian head of state has always highlighted the importance of this work, Chairperson of the Council of the Republic of the National Assembly of Belarus Natalya Kochanova said at the offsite extended session of the Presidium of the Council of the Republic of the National Assembly of Belarus to discuss the work with petitions of citizens and legal entities in Grodno Oblast on 16 September. The session was led by Natalya Kochanova, BelTA has learned.

"Handling citizens' petitions is not a new topic for us. It remains high on our agenda. The Belarusian head of state has always highlighted the importance of this work," she said.

The speaker went on saying: "At the meeting to discuss country's internal political life on 10 September, President Aleksandr Lukashenko once again drew attention to the work with people. It is certainly important for us."

"Nowadays, in a fast-paced world, at a time of a covert information campaign against our country, we need to talk to people. We hold both one-to-one and group meetings, which facilitates our communication," she stated.

Natalya Kochanova emphasized that on 12 September citizens' one-on-one meetings were held practically in all districts and towns of Grodno Oblast: "Taking into account the current dynamics we made a decision to visit a certain region every month and hold one-to-one meetings with citizens and then hold sessions of the Presidium to sum up the most topical issues that residents of this or that region of the country are concerned most of all."

"The president has told us many times that we should hear and listen to people. We must solve all the matters that fall within our remit," Natalya Kochanova said. "The president always highlights that the main thing is people and the solution of the matters of concern for them."
