Chaired by Prime Minister Hovik Abrahamyan, the Government discussed the Ministry of Justice-affiliated Judicial Acts Compulsory Enforcement Service-submitted report on key activities and priority tasks in 2014 in compliance with the Government’s Action Plan, as well as the JASEC’s estimated performance report.
Chief Compulsory Enforcement Officer of the Republic of Armenia, Major-General of Justice Mihran Poghosyan reported that in order to enhance service efficiency, a set of amendments were drafted and introduced, including amendments to the Republic of Armenia laws “On enforcement” and “On compulsory enforcement service,” as well as a number of other laws and government resolutions.
The introduction and upgrade of electronic and information systems enabled a significant reduction in the service costs. Following the amendments to the law “On principles of administration and administrative proceedings” as of January 1, 2014, the number of enforcement proceedings increased significantly. In addition, an automated system was introduced to streamline the functions of enforcement officers.

Natural persons were reimbursed to the amount of AMD1.614.761.980 (AMD2.821.158.004 in 2013), legal persons – AMD8.938.935.561 (AMD10.061.321.526 in 2013).
