RA Social Security Ministry unaware of pension payment delay

PanARMENIAN.Net - The plummeting of Armenian currency resulted in pension payments delay.



The authorities responded pensioners demands by assuring that the term of payments will be determined today. According to RA legislation, pension payments are to be effected within 10 days of each month's beginning.



"Pensions have always been distributed on time for already 5 years," Head of Employee Retirement Income Security Department at the Armenian Ministry of Labor and Social Protection, Smbat Sahyan told PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.

Sahyan refused to comment on possible influence of AMD collapse on pension payments, dubbing it an untimely question.
