Armenian government presented a draft law for parliamentary discussion
on wages of high-ranking public servants of the country, Pavel
Safaryan, First Deputy Finance and Economy Minister of Armenia,
said at the parliamentary hearings of the budget 2007 today.
He said that the executive body proposed to re-consider wages of
high public servants from 1 July, 2007. It should be done by a new
parliament that will prevent unnecessary speculations on the subject.
Wages of this category will be decided upon depending on the minimal
wages. The minimal salaries will be increased as well as salaries of
high public servants.
The Minister reminded that in 2007 the minimal wages will grow by
5 ths AMD and will make up 20 ths AMD. Previously, in 2006, the
government slightly touched upon this question and as a result,
salaries of public servants significantly grew up whereas salaries
of heads of ministries and departments remained unchanged.
If the question is not reconsidered, the wages of ministerial workers
will be higher than salaries of ministers. Salary of the head of
ministerial machinery will make up 204 ths AMD, salary of deputy
minister - 180 ths AMD. The executive body is concerned that public
servants will have higher salaries rather than ministers, and so,
amendments will be made.
