Year and Christmas, the Prime Minister wished them fruitful work.
The government approved the government's program of activities, its

whole body of ministries and government agencies.
The priorities for this year are: improved business and competitive
environment, land use efficiency in subsoil matters, housing for those
disaster zone households left homeless by the earthquake, creation
of agricultural cooperatives, strengthening of army discipline,
popularization of Armenian books, printed heritage and written arts
in Armenia and abroad, 91 items altogether.
The government approved the concept, as well as the strategy of
development of Armenian studies for 2012-2025 and timetable for its
implementation. The main goal is to bring together the Armenian State
and intellectuals with a view to turning the Armenian studies into a
powerful factor for ensuring our nation's ethnic and cultural security.
The strategy is expected to build up and strengthen the Armenian
statehood and promote a nationwide awareness of our ethnic identity.
Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan said the documents provide solutions
acceptable to all research institutions and experts.
The government next approved the list of those most difficult
and difficult, especially harmful and hazardous industries, jobs,
professions and positions entitling workers to a privileged pension.

application procedure following the entry into force of this decision.
The government decided to reorganize through merger the Yerevan
Research Institute of Optical-Physical Measurements and the Research
Institute of Radio Physics into a National Institute of Measurements
CJSC. The merger will open up new possibilities for Armenia's
national infrastructure quality in line with international and
European standards.
The Cabinet decided to grant a military service delay until the fall of
2013 to national football team player Edward Tatoyan. Ararat Chakhoyan,

of Technology (Lower Normandy), was allowed a delay until the spring
draft of 2013. Student at Moscow Dental University Armen Sargsyan was
exempted from military service until this fall's conscription campaign.
