QUESTIONS TO THE GOVERNMENT
Azat Artsakh Daily, Republic of Nagorno Karabakh [NKR]
24 Feb 07
During the recent meeting of the NKR parliament Member of Parliament
Maxim Mirzoyan inquired about the difficult condition the Arvard
Company owned by the Anivian family is in, and what steps will be
taken to improve it. The minister of territorial administration and
development of industrial infrastructures Armo Tsatrian said the
owners of the company decide what will be with the company. `As for
the processing line Mr. Mirzoyan mentioned, it was worked out for a
year and 318 tons of dry starter was produced. This technology is not
effective in Karabakh because there is no sufficient raw material and
specialists,’ said the minister. Member of Parliament Sergey Ohanian
expressed worry about the reconstruction of the hospital of Martuni
funded by Armenia Foundation. He said the hospital was to be
reconstructed by a company based in Kapan, Armenia. The hospital
temporality moved into another building. `However, the reconstruction
of the hospital has stopped. When will it be resumed?’ Sergey Ohanian
asked. The minister of urban planning Marat Hakobjanian said the NKR
Prime Minister set up a commission. A study showed that the building
should be demolished, but considering financial problems, Armenia
Foundation decided to make a new project of the hospital
building. `The ministry proposes reconstruction of the hospital
building or construction of a new building. After the estimations of
costs one of these two options will be chosen. Armenia Foundation is
supposed to deal with this problem considering its financial
capacity,’ said Marat Hakobjanian.
