Amendments to bill on allowances for temporary disability to be debated Feb. 14

Public hearings on the amendments to the bill on allowances for temporary disability will be debated in Armenia on February 14.

The amendments were discussed in the Armenian government on February 1.

As a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter came to know from the initiative group on protection of rights of temporarily disabled persons, the meeting of the group will take place later this week to determine positions.

The amendments envisage re-calculation of allowances for temporarily disabled, what aroused indignation among a large number of expecting mothers, whose allowance is expected to be less than that based on their monthly salary.
