Prime Minister: Subventions for Armenian communities will be directed  to infrastructure development projects. 

ArmInfo. This year the  government plans to allocate 10 billion drams to the communities of  Armenia, which will be used to implement infrastructure development  projects.

The Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan said this in a large hall of the RA government at a conference on the theme of "New State-Community Cooperation: Infrastructure Development", which was attended by governors responsible for regional administrations, community heads, representatives of the Armenian office of the  Development Program UN.

In particular, the prime minister noted that last year the government  declared its readiness to provide 15 billion drams to the communities  of subventions, but the program was partially implemented.   , -  he said. Noting that socio-economic development of communities is the  key to sustainable development of the Republic of Armenia, the prime  minister stressed that the heads of rural and city administrations  will reshape administrations into offices for the distribution of  "real estate" the next day.

  in the community, as a rule, it  belongs either to its head or his deputy, etc. Surprisingly, this  approach is also acceptable to the public. I want to say that for me,  the government of the Republic of Armenia and the Armenian people -  this cannot be allowed, "said Pashinyan. In continuation of what has  been said, the prime minister remarked that the civil service cannot  assume a business activity. The goal of the civil servant, in his  words, should be, first of all, the multiplication of social wealth,  and not personal or group wealth. "There can be no such phenomena in  Armenia," he stressed. However, he noted that when it comes to  heads of local administrations, it turns out that they are  the most successful, and this is one explanation, these people,  abusing their official powers, evade tax liabilities. 

Here, according to Pashinyan, there is a serious problem- Many of the  illegal mechanisms that have worked for many years continue to work.  staff list that includes brother, brother's wife,  uncle, uncle's son, friend of uncle's son, etc. who never come to  work, and then they say that there is no money in RA.  How much we  have, let's use this money effectively, and then think about the  rest, "he stressed.As the next important area of cooperation in the  government-community format, the Prime Minister called environmental  protection and consistent work towards environmental cleanliness.
