ARMENIA'S GOVERNMENT DECLINED BILL ON COMPENSATION OF BANK DEPOSITS
11:28 ~U 26.09.13
Armenia Cabinet declined on Thursday a bill on compensation of bank
deposits.
The bill was submitted by members of the Prosperous Party of Armenia
(PAP) parliamentary group, Mikael Melkumyan, Elinar Vardanyan, Naira
Zohrabyan and Vahe Hovhannisyan.
Ms Zohrabyan told Tert.am that it is clear to her that "they will
decline the bills."
"I have so often raised this problem that some of the government
members feel a surge of pure adrenalin and lose any ability for sober
judgement, and their only motive is to reject any bill submitted by
the PAP. But I still hope we will have good days," she said.
Another co-author of the bill, Mikael Melkumyan said: "If budget
revenues increase, more people receive compensations for their
deposits." One more important factor is heirship. The bill also has
points on freedom fighters [participants in the Nagorno-Karabakh war]
and people with disabilities."
As regards the amount necessary for the bill to be enforced, Melkumyan
said: "We have seen the government's mid-term expenditure program,
which envisages five to seven percent economic growth. And we see
that the task can be accomplished."
