Liberalization Processes Monitoring National Center (LPMNC) is engaged
in public work to promote transparency of municipal activities. The
monitoring is conducted with "Yerevan municipality public monitoring"
project which has won a tender organized by the presidential order,
costing AMD 3 mln. The monitoring specialists are surprised with open
and welcoming attitude of the municipality employees "The opinion
that municipality is a close structure does not meet the reality,"
Lusine Margaryan LPMNC head told a press conference today.
The monitoring is conducted in 4 main fields. It answers to the
following questions: how are auctions on land conducted; how does the
system of "one window" work; what is the state of state subsidies in
health care; what takes place in the educational system. The project
responsible persons have held meetings with health care and education
employees. They have discovered that school councils fail to meet
their functions at school. They have also unveiled money fraud and
corruption at schools.
More miserable situation is observed at health care policlinics. The
quality of health care has sharply gone down despite of increased
state subsidies.
The monitoring specialists have also studied "one window" system
newly introduced at the municipality.
"Until yesterday the municipality web page posted only one news. This
is a new structure and should be supported," Lusine Margaryan says.
The monitoring responsibles failed to receive information on
auctions of land. They have been told that it is huge pile of
information.
