YEREV AN, DECEMBER 19, NOYAN TAPAN. The team of the program studying the
current compulsory enforcement system in Armenia and the expediency of
introducing a private system has proposed creating a private,
self-sufficient and self-financed system of enforcement of court acts
and decisions in the country and discontinuing the functions of the
current state system. This World Bank-financed study was done by
consulting companies DPK Consulting (the U.S) and Ameria (Armenia) and
the Program Implementation Office of the Ministry of Justice that
propose creating a parallel private system competing with the state one
- as an alternative, as well as a third version: the gradual
introduction of a private system, during which the functions of the
state system will be reduced.
The program executives propose compulsory enforcement-related reforms
in Armenia, in particular, a new law on compulsory enforcement system.
The program head Joseph Traficanti said that the problems of the
service on compulsory enforcement of court acts are system ones in
Armenia. According to him, an educational visit of 5 persons from
Armenia to three countries: Macedonia, Bulgaria and Estonia was
financed under the program. The experience of the indicated countries
was studied during the visit. J. Traficanti said that a private system
will be of great use to Armenia: one of its positive aspects is that it
is neutral for the state in terms of expenditures. In reality the
system is a semiprivate one as its activities are regulated by a state
body and sums collected are also managed at the state level.
In the words of Nevenka Ivanovska, an expert representing Macedonia's
compulsory enforcement system, Macedonia, Estonia, the Netherlands,
Latvia and Lithuania are examples of positive experience for Armenia
because the efficiency of activity has increased threefold after the
introduction of a new system in these countries.
The Armenian government will examine the conclusions of the study and
make a respective decision.
