Abstract

The article provides a comparative legal analysis of the organizational and legal basis for maintaining the Internet resources of representative local authorities in Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan, ensuring the openness of their activities. As a result of the study, it was revealed that the websites of some representative local authorities do not contain all the information specified in the legislation, including information about their meetings; broadcasting of meetings is not provided; some information is not updated; and social networking opportunities are not used to broadcast meetings. It was hypothesized that in order to eliminate existing shortcomings, it is necessary to clarify the list of information on the activities of representative bodies of local government, taking into account their characteristics. The content of the relevant norms of national legislation, the interpretation of terms, and the experience of foreign countries confirmed the hypothesis. The author proposed to include in the list of information posted on the websites of representative bodies of local authorities information about official speeches and official statements of their leaders, standing committees and deputies, information messages, press releases aimed at notifying the population about the dates of meetings of representative bodies of local authorities and their working bodies, minutes of open meetings of representative bodies of local government and their working bodies, the results of hearing reports, and information on the activities of representative bodies of local government, its standing commissions, and deputies.
