"ESTIMATION OF MIGRATION LEGISLATION" RESEARCH IMPLEMENTED WITH
ASSISTANCE OF OSCE YEREVAN OFFICE
YEREVAN, JULY 4, NOYAN TAPAN. The "Estimation of Migration Legislation"
research was implemented with the assistance of the OSCE Yerevan
office, the main goal of which is to introduce the possible ways of
improving the institutional and legal field concerning the issues of
international migration in the Republic of Armenia. The
discussion-presentation of this research took place on July 3 within
the framework of the "Assistance for the development of migration
policy and formation of corresponding abilities in Armenia" program,
which is being implemented in Armenia with the assistance of the
European Commission.
The analysis refers to three principle issues: international standards
of supervision over migration flows from and into Armenia and the
harmony of border control, labour migration and data gathering,
protection, and monitoring.
Irrespective of the fact that the necessity of conducting such research
was attached importance during the meeting, it was also mentioned that
it has a number of flaws. The authors of the research, in particular,
did not take into account the expediency of the application of the
experience of other countries in Armenia when they introduced them.
Gagik Yeganian, the Acting Head of the Migration Agency of the Ministry
of Territorial Administration of the Republic of Armenia, mentioned
that it is necessary to conduct a united state policy in order to
regulate the issue of migration. According to him, it should include
both labour migration and the work done with foreigners arriving in
Armenia. Gagik Yeganian declared that it has already been three years
since positive migration balances were recorded in the Republic of
Armenia: thus, the number of those, who arrived in Armenia last year
was 22 thousand and 5 hundred more than that of those who left the
republic. In addition to this, the volume of passenger transportation
is increasing by 20 to 25% year after year.
