On 20 September 2019, at a briefing in the Akimat, facing the demands by picketing mothers of many children for apartments by the state, including for those who are not standing in line, Kólginov offered the mothers jobs and housing in the North Kazakhstan Region and Ekibastuz, however, many refused and asked for apartments in Nur-Sultan. Kólginov, in response to the demands, stated that this "was wrong and not according to the law".[7][8]

gollark: The trouble with saying that lifesaving medicines shouldn't cost loads is that developing and testing new medicines is *very expensive*, and for rare conditions that's not split across many people. That only applies in *some* cases, though.
gollark: "Great" if you like what's effectively cosmic horror, I suppose.

gollark: Ah yes, "security", because Apple's designs are perfect and those who change them will merely destroy that perfection.
