Law on state reserve.

The law establishes the framework for creating, maintaining, renewing, and using Mongolia’s state reserves of goods and materials. It defines key concepts such as strategic reserves, defense reserves, and disaster reserves, and sets standards for storage, replacement, and quality control. The legislation outlines how reserves are formed, including procurement rules, storage requirements, and the responsibilities of contracted storage providers. It also specifies when reserves may be released, either as repayable assistance or as non‑repayable aid, particularly during emergencies, economic instability, or disasters.
The law further defines the roles and powers of various government bodies, including the State Great Khural, the Government, the Minister responsible for emergency affairs, and local authorities. It assigns responsibilities for managing reserve warehouses, reporting, ensuring quality, and overseeing procurement and renewal processes. Financial provisions clarify that costs related to forming, maintaining, transporting, insuring, and renewing reserves are covered by the state budget. Finally, the law sets liability rules for contractors and entities that mishandle reserve materials or violate contractual or legal obligations.
