    Last week, at a press conference, ARF faction leader Levon Mkrtchian
    and secretary Hrayr Karapetian presented the work plan of the faction
    for the next session period.

    Hrayr Karapetian said that law-making activities will mainly focus
    on the social sphere, security and anti-corruption instances, as
    well as adoption of local self-governance legislations. Work will
    be proceeded over the "Law on lobbying," which will enable to avoid
    office abuse by the officials.

    He also prioritized the social need for a law on bodyguards and
    said that relevant work will be done. He pointed out the necessity
    to legally stimulate birth rate by providing benefits to families
    with more than 3 children. And the important role of the small and
    medium-sized businesses already fixed in the economy can be even more
    promoted in case of developing relevant legal paperwork.

    Faction leader Levon Mkrtchian prioritized the discussions of
    the Electoral Code and the Constitutional amendments. He said:
    "The Electoral Code will have a strategic importance for promotion
    of real democratic processes. It is an important step on the way to
    elections by international standards."

    Calling oppositionâ~@~Ys participation in the discussions of the
    Constitutional amendments necessary, Mkrtchian said that it is also
    important in combination with the Venice commission support. â~@~It
    is important to create a wide field of political-social accord in
    this direction. We are against having the issue of the Constitution
    serve for a different political purpose,â~@~] said Mkrtchian.

    Among the events for this year, he prioritized the commemoration of
    the 90th anniversary of the Genocide, noting that the advance of the
    Armenian cause is a pledge for the security of Armenia.
