The amendments to Armenia's laws that came into force on July 17
specified some functions of Armenia's Language Inspection. The
amendments mostly deal with billboards.
At his Sept. 7 meeting with journalist Sergo Yeritsyan, acting chairman
of the Language Inspection, said that the amendments have resolved
the problem.
This year, the Language Commission has registered 60 violations of
the Law on Language in Yerevan, with 21 of them involving billboards.
"However, economic entities can rectified the errors before we go to
law," Yeritsyan said.
Most of the violations are registered in Yerevan. In Armenia's regions
banks are mostly violating the law.
The fines for violating the Law on Language have been raised from
AMD 50,000-75,000 up to an amount equal to 300 minimum monthly wages.
Advertising must only be in literary Armenian, Yeritsyan said.
