Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan started today's session of
the government dwelling on the fair economic competition. He
stated that the government provided the State Commission for the
Protection of Economic Competition with necessary levers through
legislative amendments to ensure progress in this field. He asked
Artak Shaboyan, Chairman of the State Commission for Protection of
Economic Competition, to report the situation.
Shaboyan said the committee worked hard and studied 13 commodity
markets of high concentration. The markets are the food market - egg,
coffee, butter markets, and non-food markets - cement, alabaster,
different kinds of building materials, as well as fertilizers. In 9
months of 2011, the commission succeeded in revealing many issues.
Prime Minister asked Shaboyan to say what they did in precise. Artak
Shaboyan answered that they launched administrative proceedings and
made corresponding decisions holding responsible 86 enterprisers,

10 million in 2009 and 9 million in 2008.
Prime Minister asked Shaboyan to say whether the fact that they
collected three-fold more taxes gave any effect. "We are interested
whether the economic competition improved in the result of fines,
or the fines just arouse the indignation of those fined. It is
important to boost the competition", said the Premier. He asked what
the situation in the mentioned commodity markets is going to be in
2012 in the result of the events fulfilled by the Commission.
Shaboyan answered that a part of these markets has been fined and
administrative proceedings were launched, and all of them are under
the Commission's daily control. If new breaches are revealed, the
commission will again be consistent and will hold responsible the
wrongdoers.
Tigran Sargsyan concluded that the fair competition in Armenia is
improving and this is the goal and the priority of the government.
