YEREVAN

A number of changes has been made to the procedure on the Armenian
government’s activities.

The minister and head of the Armenian government staff, Manuk
Topuzyan, said that the need for amending the president’s decree on
the procedure of the government’s activities emerged due to the fact
that the executive body’s powers and commitments are not clearly
defined. The Armenian government’s activities are not regulated by any
law.

In line with the introduced amendments the prime minister’s powers,
the juridical status of deputy ministers and heads of departments
under the government, including appointments made by the prime
minister, will be clearly defined, Manuk Topuzyan said.
