The application published in mass media and certified by the signature of the Chairman of the Center for Strategic Development’ social organization Hrant Meliq-Shahnazaryan, suggests the Committee taking the behavior of the NA PAP fraction member Michael Melqumyan under examination, based on the video material previously appeared in the internet. According to the video material, as it is stated in the application ‘the NA PAP fraction member Michael Melqumyan, personally, was telling that he is an owner of many land plots and was negotiating on the rental conditions as a regular broker on the phone, was offering land plots and was not at all hiding who he was, moreover, was telling that cooperating with him would be beneficial’.

 

The applicant highlighted that according to article 65 of the RA Constitution the NA MP cannot be involved in entrepreneurial activities, hold a position in state or self-government bodies or trade organizations and perform other paid work, with the exception of scientific, pedagogical and creative.

 

According to the NA Ad-hoc Ethics Committee webpage the question of sending an inquiry regarding examination of ARF fraction leader Armen Rustamyan's application is on the agenda of the session of December 21.

 

The Committee at the session of December 7 took under examination A. Rustamyan’s application with the request to examine and make a relevant decision regarding the violation of the ethic rules by the 83 MPs, who did not register and participate in the NA extraordinary session convened on November 21, provided by the NA regulatory-law. With the objective to discuss and provide a conclusion to the Committee, the member of the ‘Heritage’ fraction Zaruhi Postanjyan was appointed as a representative of the Committee.

 

Let us recall that at the NA extraordinary session on November 21 by the initiative of 48 NA MPs it was expected to discuss the package of the law projects about making changes and additions to the law on the population state register of the RA Electoral and Criminal Codes, the authors of which were the members of the ANC fraction. However the session did not take place, since the quorum prescribed by the NA regulatory-law was not ensured: only 46 MPs registered instead of the 66 required.
