That Money is Necessary for MPs to Work More Effectively: Aghazaryan on Increased Funds for Legislators

My step representative Hovik Aghazaryan has a positive attitude towards the bill that increases the amount given to lawmakers for business trips from 50,000 to 250,000 drams. This bill has been presented in parliament by the My Step faction.

Aghazaryan stated that this funding is necessary for lawmakers to work more effectively. In this context, he mentioned the discomfort of having to pay when meeting someone at a café, emphasizing that it is awkward if the other person has to cover the cost every time.

He acknowledged that meetings can also take place directly on the street, but it is not always feasible to do so.
