YEREVAN, June 22. /ARKA/. 103 bills were approved and 36 international
agreements were ratified during the spring session of the Armenian
parliament closed on June 14, Armenian Vice-Speaker Tigran Torosyan
told reporters. According to him, more 13 bills were adopted during
a special session.
"These figures prove that the parliament worked properly, and there
were not problems while solving different problems," he said.
"However, the most important thing in the work of the parliament is
not the number of adopted laws, but their importance in our life,"
he added.
Among the bills approved he singled out the law "On Constitutional
Court" that provides mechanisms allowing citizens to appeal to the
Constitutional court literally in a few days.
"Adoption of the law "On Declaration of Natural Persons' Incomes" and
also the amendments to the Criminal Code that alleviate punishments
for inconsiderable economic damage, and conversely, toughens sanctions
for tangible damages," Torosyan said.
According to him, important also are the laws, related to
constitutional amendments. "We have managed to approve 8-9 bills in
this direction, and this inspire a hope that the government, proceeding
with the works in keeping with the schedule, will go through timely
discussion of these bills in the parliament," Torosyan said. R.O. -0--
