    YEREVAN, APRIL 3, NOYAN TAPAN. The RA state budget revenues from
    environmental protection and nature use payments made more than 1.2
    bln drams (about 3.9 mln USD) in January-February 2008. These revenues
    increased by 51.7% or 417 mln drams on the same period of 2007 as a
    result of a growth in payments for mineral mining and exhaust gases
    from vehicles.

    Accoridng to the RA ministry of finance and economy, other taxes of
    about 3.2 bln drams were transferred to the state budget in the first
    two months of 2008. In particular, royalties and concession payments
    under the RA Law on Concession made 2.3 bln drams, road payments -
    340.4 mln drams, compulsory payments of public services regulation -
    364.5 mln drams, fines for violation of the Law on Taxes - 76.2 mln
    drams, and incomes of the material encouragement and social development
    fund of the State Tax Service made 65.6 mln drams. Other taxes grew
    by 37.5% or 863.7 mln drams as compared with the same months of last
    year, mainly due to payments envisaged by the RA Law on Concession.

    Budgetary revenues from state duties amounted to 3.1 bln drams in
    January-Feruary 2008, with the quarterly program being executed
    by 62.8%.

    State duty collection grew by 19.8% or 507.1 mln drams on the same
    period of last year, mainly due to a growth in duties collected
    for lawsuits and complaints, licensing of some types of activities,
    and departure of natural persons by planes.
