be presented to the RA National Assembly.

By another resolution, the government approved the contest package for
the "Selection of the company in charge of the construction of the new
nuclear energy block" and confirmed the staff of the inter-ministerial
contest committee. The prime minister assigned RA Energy and Natural
Resources Minister to make an official announcement regarding the
international contest 15 days after the official record of purchases.

MASTER PLAN APPROVED

The government approved the 2008-2012 Master Plan presented by the
owners of the "Zvartnots" and "Shirak" airports. The RA Government’s
N392-N resolution, which was passed in 2003 to confirm the Master
Plan presented by the owners of "Zvartnots" airport, was revoked. The
passing of the resolution was guided by the 72nd article of the RA
law on "Legal acts" and based on the propositions and requirements
signed on December 18, 2001 between the RA Government and "Corporation
America S.A." company.
