Bakhsyan:  cancelling the  NA Permanent Commission on Human Rights,  Armenian Government demonstrated its indifference to the human rights  issues in Armenia. 

ArmInfo. Anahit Bakhsyan, the leader of  Hello Yerevan faction, applied with an open letter to Armenian prime Minister Karen  Karapetyan due to cancellation of NA Permanent Commission on Human Rights. 

According to the information shared with ArmInfo at the press office  of Hello Yerevan faction, Bakhshyan particularly criticized the  position of national Assembly in respect to Human Rights protection  and protection of Amrneian nationals rights.  Bakhshyan referred to  the Article 18 of the Constitution (setting the right of effective  protection of own freedoms and rights for everybody), stated that  with this cancellation of appropriate permanent commission, the  National Assembly showed own indifference to Human Rights protection.  " The Government of Armenia has no right to deny the human rights  defense, justifying that with  the lack of time and finances. Under  the conditions when there is no entity to put under legal liability  all those who fire their employees within the total inactivity of  trade unions, the issue of human right requires an intervention at  the highest level," Bakhshyan's statement reads.  To remind, 9           permanent commissions to be left at   Armenian NA instead of  actual 12. Such a suggestion was voiced on May19 at National Assembly  by Republican Party law maker Hrayr Tovmasyan.  According to him,           this suggestion is preconditioned by the reduction of law  makers number from 131 down to 105, as well as by similarity of  several commissions works. It is planned to join the Commissions on  human rights and  on state and regulatory issues in one. The  Commission on health, maternity and childhood will be joined to the  commission of social issues. The Commission on agriculture and nature  protection will be joined to the commission of rural development and  administration.   The Commision on  European integration will continue its work, specially  for the reason that the cooperation with  European Union is expected to be improved in upcoming years, which  will be supported by appropriate comprehensive agreement to be  signed.
