On December 29, prime minister Ara Haroutyunyan during the traditional
meeting with the journalists touched upon the adopted budget draft for
2010. Considering it essential the premier noted that expenditures and
proceeds would be secured and a number of socio-economic programs
would be carried out. The Executive hopes that by the end of 2010
economic growth will be fixed in the republic.
At the instance of the journalists the premier touched upon the
resettlement program, also to those omissions because of which the
program was slightly failed. Ara Haroutyunyan noted that in
forthcoming year "development policy" would be carried out in this
sphere.
With the view of receiving a profit the credit will be given to migrants.

the question concerning "rate policy" A.Haroutyunyan noted that the
prices would be reconsidered and fixed so that the structure would be
able to exist, needy families would get social assistance from the
state. Rate of water will be increased, electricity charges won’t be
changed.
According to the premier the greatest achievement of 2009 is the
improvement of the demographic representation of the Republic, among
shortcomings he points out the indices recorded in the sphere of
agriculture, which are far from ones anticipated. There are too many
tasks to be carried out in this direction; during the forthcoming year
special courses will be organized for land users.
To the estimation of the prime minister, state administration
system is too exaggerated and has dangerous position. We must have
optimal administration system, in this concern it is necessary to be
optimistic and conduct flexible policy; make discharges in
administration system and open new working places in the economic
sphere,- underlined the premier.
According to Ara Haroutyunyan there are neither essential
admissions nor achievements in home and foreign policy.
To the question about the participation of the party "Azat
Artsakh" headed by him in the parliamentary election in 2010, he noted
that the party had a program by which it will be guided.
