    NAIRA ZOHRABYAN SUGGESTS INQUIRING INTO FINANCIAL FRAUDS BY WIFE OF EX FINANCE MINISTER

    During parliamentary hearings of Armenia's draft budget 2015 on
    Friday MP from Prosperous Armenia Party Naira Zohrabyan asked Labor
    and Social Security Minister Artyom Asatryan about the legislative
    changes planned in the maternity allowance system.

    She said that under the former Government, Prosperous Armenia suggested
    paying maternity allowance to unemployed mothers but the Government
    said that it was a populist initiative.

    "Today's government thinks otherwise and we are glad that all
    mothers in Armenia will be protected. But here we have the problem of
    corruption. Not every woman in Armenia is the wife of a minister. For
    example, the wife of the ex Finance Minister got 20mln AMD when she
    came back from maternity leave," Zohrabyan said.

    She meant the wife of ex Finance Minister David Sargsyan, financial
    ombudsman Piruz Sargsyan.

    To remind, the National Social Security Service suggests paying
    maternity allowance to all women. In 2016 the Government is planning
    to budget additional 8bln AMD for this purpose. On the other hand,
    the Service suggests that the size of the allowance should depend
    on the length of service: 40% of the wage for less than one year in
    office, 60% for 1-3 years and 80% for more than 80%. In any case,
    the maternity allowance should not be bigger than five minimum wages.
