YEREVAN, September 24. /ARKA/. Armenia’s Chamber of Control (COC)
calls on to amend the RA legislation.

"Most of the violations concern the country’s legislation. The laws
on procurements, state duty and inspections need amendments," said
COC Chairman Ishkhan Zakaryan.

He believes the RA Law on Procurements is too vague, allowing citizens
to bypass it easily.

Zakaryan said COC would file a report to the RA Persecutor General’s
Office about the recent violations in the country.

Last week COC issued statements regarding programs implemented by
the RA ministries of Agriculture and Urban Development, as well as
the WB financed Urban Heating Project.

The chamber today published report on Syunik region’s administration.

COC says the total damage caused by violations in the state programs
estimates to 1.3bln drams. ($1 – 303.77 drams).
