    Shirak marz where a sitting of the government was held.

    Prior to the sitting, the prime minister Tigran Sargsian went to Surb
    Astvatsatsin Church. Before starting the sitting in the building of V.

    Before discussing the issues on the agenda, T. Sargsian spoke about the
    purpose of organizing an away-sitting and the issues to be discussed.
    He in particular said: "Today is a historical day for us because the
    whole Armenian government is holding an away-sitting for the first
    time. Henceforth such sittings will be held in various marzes every
    quarter... It provides branch departments with an exceptional
    opportunity to prepare their agenda in such a way that problems,
    further work and long-term programs in marzes will be identified".

    During discussion of the agenda issues, the government approved the
    concept on solution of apartment problems of the families left homeless
    by the earthquake and the program of measures to ensure the use of the
    concept's provisions. The decision was made in accordance with the
    program of events dedicated to the 20th anniversary of the 1988
    earthquake and the 2008-2012 program of the Armenian government. The
    concept aims to form principles of a state policy through analysis of
    the restoration work under the housing programs implemented based on
    the previous decisions. The purpose of the concept is to solve housing
    problems of persons left homeless by the earthquake by 2013.

    The minister of uran development and the governors of Shirak, Lori and
    Tavush marzes were instructed to present - during development of a
    state medium-term expenditure program - a program on solution of
    housing problems of the families left homeless by the earthquake.

    The government approved the program of events dedicated to the 20th
    anniversary of the 1988 earthquake.

    By another decision, the government allocated 500 million drams from
    its reseve fund to the ministry of urban development for the purpose of
    solving housing problems by providing apartment purchase certificates
    to 47 persons in Gyumri, 30 persons in the city of Vanadzor, 11 persons
    in the city of Stepanavan and 12 persons in the city of Dilijan.

    The government approved the 2008-2012 concept of development of the
    healthcare system in Shirak marz. The main purpose of the document is
    to decide priorities of the healthcare system's development in the
    marz, as well as strategical directions which will allow to increase
    the quality and access of medical services to the population of the
    marz, especially vulnerable groups, to a maximum.

    The executive body also took a decision to allocate 13 mln 200 thousand
    drams from its reserve fund to the Shirak regional administration for
    construction of a heating system for 6 subsidiary buildings of Gyumri's
    Family Heath Center CJSC. 19 mln drams was allocated to the Shirak
    regional administration for improvement, building and repair work in
    the area of Gyumri's Mental Health Center CJSC.

    According to the RA Government Information and PR Department, the
    government approved the program "Gyumri as a Republican Regional
    Center".

    Based on the necessity of solving the problems of preservation of
    architectural, historical and cultural environment and urban
    development in the city of Gyumri, the government approved the priority
    directions of the 2008-2012 program on restoration and development of
    the historical-cultural and urban development environment in Gyumri.

    The executive body also approved the concept of reconstructing the
    Gyumri technopark. The concept is aimed at reducing the disproportion
    between Yerevan and marzes and the differences in incomes of their
    residents, improving the business environment and solving socioeconomic
    problems of Gyumri.

    The 2008 program of state assistance to the activities of Gyumri
