BAREV YEREVAN BLOC DISTRUSTFUL OF CITY HALL'S TRANSPORT FARE POLICIES
16:57 19.09.13
The Yerevan city council's opposition bloc has expressed unwillingness
to attend the debates devoted to the transport fares.
In a statement, the representatives of the Barev Yerevan (Hello,
Yerevan) bloc say they are not going to take part in the activities
of the commission expected to consider the transport fares in the
capital city.
The bloc says that the decision was made at a September 18 session.
The Barev Yerevan representatives argue that the municipality's
earlier decisions to raise public transport were not proportional,
and were made in violation of the laws.
They further claim that a mayoral proposal for creating the commission
is neither justified nor well-worded in terms of specifying procedures.
They find that it would be more appropriate to discuss the issue on the
level of a temporary commission to be created by the Elders' Council.
Barev Yerevan had earlier applied to the Administrative Court with
a demand for declaring the earlier decision on transport fare hike
null and void.
