Armenia’s financial supervision inspectorate restores 2.3bln drams in 2013

YEREVAN, January 17. /ARKA/. The supervision inspectorate of Armenia’s ministry of finance restored and re-documented 2.3 billion drams as a result of inspections in 2013, as compared to 1.1 billion drams in 2012, the head of the inspectorate Sona Gharibyan reported Friday.

“We carried out less inspections this year than in 2012, but restored higher amount than last year, as inspections were initiated mainly in risky fields”, she told reporters Friday.

A total of 85 inspections and studies were carried out, including 29 check-ups under a premier-approved annual program, 27 inspections requested by law-enforcement agencies, 9 inspections and 20 studies instructed by the premier, according to the report.

Gharibyan said last year six cases were transferred to the Prosecutor General office, where criminal proceeding was instituted on five of them.–0–
