    Capital: Armenia's highest paid official's appointment unlawful

    10:52 - 04.06.11


    The paper says that Armenia's Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan appointed
    Armen Khachatryan as the new head of the National Competitiveness
    Foundation of Armenia (NCFA), claiming the appointment is a violation
    of the law.

    The daily explains that according to the regulations of the foundation
    and the existing law the activities of the foundation are conducted by
    the head of the foundation that is appointed to this position or
    dismissed from it by the Board of Trustees.

    Further, the paper presumes that there may be a misreading of the law
    and that PM Sargsyan may have based his decision on the section of the
    law that says that such appointment can for the first time be made
    also by the founder, in this case the government.

    But the point is, the paper explains, that the government already used
    this right in 2008 by appointing Gayane Afrikyan as NCFA chief upon
    its establishment.

    The NCFA head in Armenia receives 6,2 million drams (approx. $14,450)
    in salaries - the highest in Armenia.
