YEREVAN, JUNE 14, NOYAN TAPAN. On June 13 the heads of the creative
unions of the republic introduced a number of issues troubling them
during a meeting with Sarge Sargsian, the RA Prime Minister. The
participants of the meeting, in particular, spoke about the issues
of the functions of the current seven creative unions presenting
different spheres and acting with the status of NGOs, their role and
significance under the conditions of the newly-independent Armenia,
the development of the productive mechanisms of their activities,
and those of state assistance.
According to information provided to Noyan Tapan by the RA Goverment’s
Information and Public Relations Department, the RA bill on "Creative
Unions" included on the agenda and submitted to the RA National
Assembly for consideration in 2006 was touched upon during the
meeting. The heads of the unions believe that this bill is of great
significance for them and they would like it to be discussed by the
newly-elected parliament during the autumn session.
Other suggestions on promoting the national culture through the medium
of television, founding an alley decorated with sculptures dedicated to
the friends of the Armenian people in Yerevan: F. Nansen and F. Verfel,
to name but a few, were also presented during the meeting with the
Prime Minister.
Serge Sargsian accepted the suggestion by the heads of the creative
unions on holding such kind of meetings more often.
