Minister promises to 'clear' his name from watchdog's blacklist
13:08 - 17.05.11
The Ministry of Healthcare never fails to provide information to
people, the health minister has said.
Harutyun Kushkyan made the statement at a news conference in
parliament, commenting on recent findings by the Information Freedom
Center which included the ministry's name in its blacklist.
"We never fail to provide information. There was just a technical
problem, and we issued a strict warning that information be always
disclosed within specified timeframes," the minister said.
In its recent quarterly report, the Freedom of Information Center
published its blacklist of officials who, it claimed, violated
citizens' right to obtain information from state bodies. First time
ever, Ministry of Healthcare was found in violation of such right.
"This is the first year I hear my name has been been included in the
list. And I promise to quit the list this year," the minister said,
commenting on the report.
