ANNOTATION
The article focuses on the reforms implemented in improving the activities of
ministries in the New Uzbekistan in recent years, with an emphasis on recent
updates in this area.
Introduction.
It is no secret that in the past period, there have been fundamental changes and
updates in the legislation of the activities of state authorities, both in organizational and practical
aspects. The organizational and legal basis of public participation in the development of
regulatory legal acts, state and territorial programs adopted at the center and on the premises,
ensuring the openness of the activities of state authorities and governing bodies, was formed [1,
p. 263]. In particular, by reducing the non-sectoral tasks of state bodies and the widespread
introduction of digital technologies into their activities, their structure was on average approved
by 15 percent, as well as reducing the positions of 40 deputy leaders in 26 state bodies and
organizations.
In order to reduce bureaucratic barriers and improve the system of public services to the
population at the expense of the introduction of modern principles of management into the
activities of state bodies, about 30 types of licenses and permits were canceled, more than 70
public services were simplified, more than 60 documents were canceled by state organizations.
The number of users of the “e-government” system exceeds 4 million, through which more than
130 information resources of government agencies were created. On the single interactive public
services portal, almost 350 types of services have been established to be provided in online form
[2].
In particular, under the presidency of President Shavkat Mirziyoyev, on December 30, 2022, a
meeting was held on the implementation of Administrative Reforms, issues of changing the
structure and work system of the government, the most important tasks of 2023 for the socio-

economic development of the country. At the meeting, the Ministry of investments, industry and
trade was assigned the tasks of increasing productivity in large sectors, studying the potential of
districts where industry did not go, and launching their “growth points”. It was noted that the
economy will be brought forward only by investment and exports, and next year it is necessary
to increase the volume of exports by 23 billion dollars. More than 300 projects with a total cost
of $ 8 billion were reported to be in operation and another 40 new major projects were to begin.
Measures were established to improve passenger services in the Transport sector, develop a
digital map of all roads, and increase service on roads. Attention was also paid to the issues of
improving the quality of education, the development of Science, Tourism, Culture and sports. It
was emphasized that it is necessary to eliminate corruption in health and pharmaceuticals, to
work systematically with patients in need of state care.
Ministers should be searched; the whole system should be changed in practice. We all need
to be simple and selfless, love the people and work hard. Our ultimate goal is to please our
people, said the President [3].
At the meeting held in a critical spirit, shortcomings made this year were pointed out and
appropriate measures were determined.
The strategic development agency, together with the project office of the adviser to the President
of the Republic of Uzbekistan on economic development, effective management and
international cooperation, is working on projects on the quality of management, organizational
potential and the implementation of reforms. In particular, “Organizational capacity analysis”
(Capability review) and “Department for the implementation of priority reforms” (Delivery unit).
Jonathan Slater, an international expert on public administration and administrative reform, is
working on the Capability review program. He is currently responsible for coordinating the study
of economic development and poverty reduction, investment and foreign trade, and the
organizational capacity of the finance ministries.
The program is an assessment system aimed at analyzing the effectiveness of ministries, taking
into accounts the competence of departments, the tasks assigned to them, including the
qualifications and experience of employees [10]. After all, although their tasks and area differ
from each other, the results of the analysis revealed five important success factors that can be
applied in each of the offices: clairvoyance, leadership, planning, resources and work in
harmony.
In addition, work is underway on the concept of the Department for the implementation of
priority reforms (Delivery unit). For information, the unit in question (PMDU) was first formed
in June 2001 by the UK government under Prime Minister Tony Blair. Delivery unit was formed
in order to fulfill the tasks set out in the pre-election programs, as a result of which four priority
areas were selected, and it included the following goals:
1.
Improving school performance,
2.
Reducing waiting times in hospital ambulance services,
3.
Crime reduction,
4.
Reduction of Appeals about the shelter, which is given without justification.
After the system started in the relevant ministries and departments, the effectiveness of
ambulance service in hospitals increased from 80% to 98%, student absorption in schools
increased by 25%, the number of applications for unjustified asylum decreased by 78% in 2-3
years.
The UK experience was then introduced by countries such as Malaysia, South Africa, Indonesia
and India.

According to Jonathan Slater: “Delivery unit plays an important role in implementing the
reforms implemented by the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan”.
The activity of the department consists of two tasks:
Control the execution and implementation of the tasks set by the head of the government;
Making proposals to the President, ministries and agencies on identifying difficulties arising in
the implementation of complex reforms and eliminating problems in the system. Work on the
project is ongoing [4].
The goals and objectives of economic and social development should be determined in
accordance with environmental requirements in all developed and developing countries, taking
into account their sustainability [5, p. 66]. The environment and human health, living and
working conditions depend on socio-productive activities. The development of the market
economy and the processes of integration and globalisation are not at all conducive to improving
the environmental situation in the world [6, p. 65]. Consistent work is being carried out in our
country in the field of environmental protection, the rational use of natural resources and the
provision of sanitary and environmental conditions [7, p. 36]. Fundamentally improving the
ecological situation by creating a modern ecological monitoring mechanism based on digital
technologies, further increasing environmental culture, preserving biodiversity and regulating
work related to waste, planting trees, bushes and organizing green areas and introducing new
procedures for their protection , as well as the implementation of Decree No. DP-14 of the
President of the Republic of Uzbekistan dated January 25, 2023 “On the priority organisational
measures for the effective functioning of the republican executive authorities” taking into
account the new duties and functions imposed by this Decree, the Ministry of Natural Resources
was renamed the Ministry of Ecology, Environmental Protection and Climate Change [8].
Conclusion.
The idea of “For Human Dignity”, which is the basis of the reforms implemented in
our country, the “Man-Society-State” approach, which is the main principle of our current
reforms, is deeply embodied in the essence of our Constitution [9, p. 110]. On the basis of the
above, we can conclude that human dignity, honour and pride come first in all aspects of life in
New Uzbekistan. The aim of the reforms being carried out in our country in all spheres is to
build a democratic state and a just society, where the implementation of the simple and clear
principle “The interests of the individual are paramount” is of paramount importance.
