IJEVAN, MARCH 16, NOYAN TAPAN. The demand on salaries fixed in the
law “On Pre-School Education” come into force from January 1, 2006,
doesn’t function in the marz of Tavush. It’s particularly fixed by
the law that the minimum wage of pedagogues of kindergartens under
state and community subjection must be in double size of the minimum
salary fixed in the republic, thus, 30 thousand drams (about 67
U.S. dollars). But at the sitting of the Regional Council, Robert
Nersisian, the Chief of the Finance and Economy Department of the
Tavush regional administration advised the village heads to appoint
salary of pedagogues arising not of the demands of the above-mentioned
law, but of financial possibilities of communities. Some village
heads mentioned at the sitting that the state is obliged to allocate
for that purpose money to communities from the budget what isn’t
done. R.Nersisian informed the Noyan Tapan correspondent that soon
changes may be done in the law “On Pre-School Education” for the
above-mentioned principle concerning pedagogues’ minimum wage relates
only to state pre-school institutions.
