It became known during the meeting of government that four state
offices will be set in Karabakh soon.
First, the Centre of Medical and Social Expertise will be set up,
which will determine the groups of disability, the personal rehab
course, other issues relating to expertise. During the affirmation
of the regulations of the Center Prime Minister Ara Harutiunyan
said everyone knows that through bribes some people are listed in a
disability group and get a permanent monthly benefit. According to the
prime minister, the principle of granting a certificate of disability,
as well as a number of other approaches will be reviewed.
Another office was set up in the ministry of social security, the
Center for Coordination of Housing Programs, since except the mortgage
the rest of housing construction is social housing, said the prime
minister. The minister of social security Narine Azatyan said the
center will be in charge of the strategy of housing construction,
monitoring and other issues.
The third was set up in the Business Support Council. An administration
was set up to maintain relations between businesses and the state,
study the factors which hinder the development of business, work out
proposals and be accountable to the government directly.
The fourth office was proposed by the mayor of Stepanakert Vazgen
Mikayelyan. It is Stepanakert Office of Investment Programs which
is entitled to everything concerning investments and construction in
Stepanakert, including coordination, control, budget, etc.
During the meeting of government it was not mentioned how many jobs
will be created in those offices. Instead, the government passed
regulations according to which the office of the head of an agency
with a staff of less than 100 cannot be larger than 36 sq m. "What
can we do if there is not enough space?" said the vice prime minister
Armo Tsatryan.
The prime minister worried about another issue. What if it turns out
that the space of the office is more than 36 sq m? They could not
decide which is better, to reconstruct offices or put a bookcase and
not to walk past it during the working hours.
