Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan stated several months ago that the
target of the governmental tax service will be the major businesses in
2009.The reporters asked a question to Serge Sargsyan during the press
conference on the anniversary of his inauguration. Serge Sargsyan was
asked to evaluate the activities of the government in this direction.
`These kinds of statements cannot be evaluated after a short time. A
year or a year and a half are needed to be able to assess such a
statement and the effectiveness of the work. But, I think, the steps
that are being taken now, from the demand of the external audit for
the big enterprises to the use of cash machines. I think the head of
the tax service will do his job very well the meaning of which is the
following: every time addressing the public, he should mention the
name of a major businessman who paid more taxes,' Serge Sargsyan said.
According to him, the difference will be obvious within a short
period. `We cannot improve the tax sphere, I'm saying this consciously
realizing the importance of speech, unless major enterprises, major
taxpayers are the forerunners of this process. We always state to be
going to be hard on major businesses, major taxpayers. People may
think that we are doing this out of populism. That is not true. At
least, I myself do not have such a reason. I consider that the major
businesses are the locomotive of our economy but at the same time I
think that the major businesses must be in the tax field. And
especially under such conditions, in the time of crisis, the major
businesses should not expect major profit,' stated Serge Sargsyan.
