YEREVAN, AUGUST 24, NOYAN TAPAN. NA Speaker Tigran Torosian presented
at the August 23 press conference processes existing at the NA
staff. It was particularly spoken about dissolution of few structures,
some structure changes what was recently rather stormily responded
in the press, especially by former NA Speaker Artur Baghdasarian's
com-partizans. Presenting reasonings for dissolution of every structure
in a rather detailed way, T.Torosian mentioned that he has no wish
"to estimate anybody's works, steps taken in the past."
"Everything that was done, was done only for one reason: I, as the NA
Speaker, is responsible for the quality of the NA staff's work, and
steps were taken according to that responsibility and laws," T.Torosian
said, assuring that structures bearing no relation to the NA activity
were wound up. The NA Speaker also stated that in total, 38 people
were discharged. He expressed a hope that in the case of existence of
vacancies at the NA staff, it will be possible to return some of the
above-mentioned employees to the staff. T.Torosian also informed that
he presented reasonings concerning structure changes before the press
conference, during the consultation convened at 11:00 in which heads
of the NA group and factions, except the OYP (Country of Law party)
representative, and Chairmen of Standing Committees participated. The
NA Speaker studied, within border of his commissions, the process
of implementation of the parliament budget as well, as a result of
what he prevented allocation of 10 mln drams, the second part of the
financing from the NA budget, to the Armenian-Russian Interregional
Cooperation center. It was envisaged during the recent two years to
allocate from the NA budget to the center 20 mln drams annually.
The sum was completely allocated in 2005, and only half of it in 2006.
T.Torosian mentioned that the NA may not be a donor organization,
especially for a structure bearing no relation to the NA, irrespective
of programs being implemented by the structure.
