/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "Gas, electricity and water tariffs increase is
conditioned by objective reasons and will lead to price increase
in adjacent sectors, employing the resources specified," Chairman
of Standing Parliamentary Committee for Economy Issues, Vardan
Bostandgyan told a news conference on Tuesday. According to him,
tariff increases do not carry dramatic nature and Armenian society
will be able to overcome the difficulties. RA Government is making
best efforts to mitigate the social strain.
Bostandgyan stressed that in free market economy every person has to
pay for services he uses.
"Economy should be practiced either," Bostandgyan advised.
Referring to the work of petrol and gas service station, Bostandgyan
stressed the negligent customer service and a mismatch between quality
and price of fuel offered, as well as lack of efficiency of authorities
in charge of inspection and licensing of the above mentioned stations.
On Feb. 27 RA Public Services Regulatory Commission ratified new
public utilities tariffs. New prices are valid from Apr.1, 2009.
