in Armenia discussed
13:25, 7 March, 2012
YEREVAN, MARCH 7, ARMENPRESS. Secretary of the National Security
Council of Armenia Arthur Baghdasaryan chaired today the regular
sitting of the inter-departmental commission on fighting against drug
addiction and illegal drug circulation in Armenia. Press service of
the NSC told Armenpress that in his opening speech Baghdasaryan
stressed the necessity to sum up the work implemented by the
departments during the year and present it to the leader of the
country. The NSC Secretary said they have registered stability in
fighting against these phenomena. The analysis of the registered
violations shows that last year 1525 such cases have been registered
and no increase as compared with the previous year has been recorded.
In 2011 128 kg of drugs were seized, which is not more as compared
with the previous year. The absence of growth in the violations
registered in this sphere is already positive but we must make steps
to decrease their volume.
Members of the inter-departmental commission presented the reports on
the works carried out by their department in fighting against drug
addiction and illegal drug circulation. They said that in 2011 they
have implemented all the events intended by the program.
The participants of the sitting also discussed the EU-funded program
on creation of rehabilitation centers which will provide
social-psychological and advisory support. The program has been worked
out as a result of studies of experience of a number of countries and
legislations.
