    KOCHARIAN DISCUSSES PACE OF SOCIAL SECURITY REFORMS

    ArmenPress
    Dec 21 2004

    YEREVAN, DECEMBER 21, ARMENPRESS: Armenian president Kocharian held
    a working meeting today with prime minister, labor and social issues
    minister, central bank governor and other government officials to
    discuss the pace of reforms in the social security system.

    Kocharian's press office said the president drew the attention of
    the present to the fact that though some parts of the social security
    reform were discussed and several ministries have taken appropriate
    steps there is not yet a comprehensive relevant program.

    "We have not a single document that would outline what we are going
    to do and what we are going to demand from the ministries, while
    reforming the system requires a well-coordinated and persistent work,'
    Kocharian was quoted as saying.

    The president described reforming this sector as "being the most
    difficult and protracted," adding that the fragmented studies could be
    used for developing a comprehensive program to start its implementation
    next year.

    Kocharian instructed to set up a task force that has to involve
    skilled and seasoned experts from all ministries and other government
    departments to work out a general concept on reforms within a month.
