Chairman of the Armenian Union of Employers Gagik Makaryan said in
today's press conference that 30 councils adjunct to the government are
headed by the prime minister. It is impossible to ensure effectiveness.
According to him, there is no need to create so much work for the
prime minister. Since most of those councils are aimed at reforms,
they had to involve mostly the civil society and the private sector.
He noted that the Corruption Fight Council has done nothing so far.
The council established to support businessmen has not held a single
meeting since December.
Gagik Makaryan has found out that most members of the boards are
government officers therefore the government never helps the private
sector. The private sector is not represented to these councils.
"If you don't hear what the society says, then the state plays a
coercing role," he said.
