COUNCIL OF CIVIL SERVICE
Azat Artsakh – Nagorno Karabakh Republic (NKR)
17 Feb 05
On February 14 the press conference of the NKR Council of Civil
Service took place, during which journalists had an opportunity to
get acquainted with the work done in one year and get answers to
their questions. The system of civil service has been long operating
in foreign countries. In our country the Council of Civil Service
was established a year ago and aims to promote the development of
a flexible and healthy cadre system. As any new organization the
Council of Civil Service also faces difficulties. The chairman of
the council B. Arushanian informed that in the beginning all the
work was done by the members of the council only (the reason was
the lack of office and possibility to employ specialists). In answer
to the question if the law favours the effectiveness of work of the
council, B. Arushanian said that there will be need to change some
points in the law in the course of time, but now the activity of
the council is carried out strictly within the framework of the law
in effect. The NKR Council of Civil Service will soon undertake the
first retraining and qualification courses. â~@~This a complicated
process requiring hard work and efforts. We also have questions to
be answered because the system is new in our republic. Anyway, in the
beginning the approach cannot be strict because the specialists are not
ready for it either,â~@~] he said. In reference to cooperation it was
mentioned that the council received methodological and practical aid
from the corresponding body of the Republic of Armenia (the problem
of not being recognized internationally does not allow their foreign
colleagues have direct communication with them) but hopefully the
range of cooperation will become wider year by year.
