COMMITTEE HEAD PRAISES NEXT YEAR BUDGET
Gagik Minasyan, chairman of interim committee on
finance and crediting, budgeting and economic issues
at the National Assembly, praised the next year budget
saying it insures 27.3 percent growth in income from
taxes with 9 percent growth in GDP. In his words, no
better fight against shadow economy could be imagined.
`Income taxes have grown by 2.4 time from 2002 to
2007, i.e., 2004 percent,’ he said saying it is a good
assessment of Andranik Margaryan’s administration.
Minasyan said so in a debate with Aram Sargsyan from
Justice Block. Sargsyan pointed out that the pensions
for old age are lower than the minimal consumer
basket. Minasyan contradicted saying the average
pension will go up to 13.500. However, he failed to
indicate how much the minimal consumer basket is. /Panorama.am/
