Control service dissatisfied with governmental charity committee workDecember 24, 2010 - 15:47 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Armenian government’s charity committee has violated its obligations by including the partically or fully completed deals into the “charity” category, according to the head of the control service Hovhannes Hovsepyan. As he told a December 24 news conference, the deals should be included in the category before they’re concluded. “The committee just gave those companies a chance to evade taxes, relaxing restrictions for the sum involved in the charity action.” As Hovsepyan noted, at present, control service is actively working to reveal violations in the field.
