ArmInfo. We should take additional measures to rule out any possibility
of food intoxication at schools and kindergartens, said Prime Minister
Tigran Sargsyan before the government’s session on Thursday. To recall,
27 children at Sisian kindergarten (south of Armenia) were hospitalized
because of food poisoning on September 5. "Our consistent work to
regulate the gold market, taxi-services, passport and visa services and
cemeteries has brought positive results. In case of consistent work
we will considerably increase also the quality of services provided
to our population. We are concerned about the recent food poisoning
in the kindergarten in Sisian and should discus additional measures
to prevent such incidents," the prime minister said.

In this context, he offered discussing the problem with the ministries
of health and agriculture with possible involvement of the Sisian
municipality.

The premier highlighted that the public will be informed of the
measures taken in this direction.
