On September 12, the activity of the sixth session of the third convocation of RA NA began under the sounds of the anthem of the Armenian Republic. Then the MPs approved the agenda of the four-day sittings and counting board staff.
The package of the law “On Making Addenda and Amendments to the Civil Code” submitted in the second reading and proceeding from it proposed amendments to other laws was the first debated bill.
Agreeing with the speakers’ estimations, the NA President Artur Baghdasaryan, at the same time noticed that it isn’t complete and that for fully regulation of the legislative field of the sphere the submitted bill must be followed by relevant new laws. The submitted draft will give the opportunity of developing the hypothec market and young families to get apartments, but the citizens with average salary can’t enjoy this, so everything must be done for it to be available for wide circles of the society.
