As pointed out Minister of Territorial Administration and Development David Lokyan, the total budget of 85 program applications submitted during the last two meetings of the interdepartmental commission amounted to 3 billion 387 million AMD. Of these, co-financing of communities will amount to 1 billion 738 million AMD, the amount of subventions from the state budget is 1 billion 459 million AMD, and private sector financing - 188.5 million AMD.

Based on the results of the discussion, only one application was not approved from the submitted 46 program applications due to the unsatisfactory amount of co-financing from the communities.
