This Law regulates social relations aimed at creating legal and organizational conditions for the formation, development and functioning of agglomerations in the Republic of Kazakhstan. Agglomeration shall be intended a local system consisting of a capital or a city of national significance, or a city of regional significance and located around settlements that meet the criteria defined by this Law. Agglomeration territory shall be intended land and waterbodies within the boundaries of the capital, city of national significance, city of regional significance, determined by the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan, and their suburban areas.
