"Dashnaktsutyun" and "Heritage" offer creating an independent
anti-corruption body
Yerevan/Mediamax/. "Dashnaktsutyun" party offers adopting a separate
law on combating corruption and establish an independent
anti-corruption body.
MP from Dashnaktsutyun faction Artsvik Minasyan stated this today
speaking at "Corruption State in Armenia" round-table, Mediamax
reports.
He said that representatives of oppositional forces and civil sector
should make part of the anti-corruption structure. The MP claims that
the independent body should be paid sufficiently.
"We think combating corruption was unsatisfactory since 2001 and it
resulted from lack of political will for system reforms", said Artsvik
Minasyan.
According to the MP, the political will of the authorities in
combating corruption should be demonstrated through distinct actions
and not strategies and statements.
Deputy Chairman of "Heritage" party Armen Martirosyan noted in his
turn that they also offer establishing an independent body. He noted
that "Heritage" recently handed over to the Prime Minister a package
of 26 proposals on combating corruption. --0--
