At today's National Assembly session, RoA Deputy Finance Minister
Suren Karayan announced that the government had proposed that the
vote on the pending tax reform package be postponed by 15 days.
Vardan Ayvazyan, President of the Permanent Committee for Economic
Affairs, told reporters that a joint discussion of the matter had
occurred and that the proposal to delay the vote had been considered
valid.
The main point of contention in the tax package is the proposed tax
inspectorates to be located in large-scale business enterprises.
Mr. Ayvazyan said that exporting companies, no matter how large,
would not be subject to such tax inspectorates.
ARF member Artzvik Minasyan told Hetq that he sees the government's
measure as normal even though the government should have generally
rejected such a measure. He added that he'd welcome a postponement
of the vote which would afford time to review the matter.
