Politics

“Take the sums for science funding out of the means of Public TV Company” , MP Shavarsh Kocharyan, Chair of Committee for Science, Education and Culture, says.

According to him, there is no country in the world where science is financed as much as Public TV. He is also worried about Government attitude to science.

“2,7 milliard drams from budget were envisaged for science in 2001. But 1,7 milliard only was allocated” , he states.

He added science in both Georgia and Azerbaijan is financed properly.

In the state budget project the Committee has introduced 20 suggestions over science, education and culture financing. But Mr Kocharyan bewares of submitting the proposals to the Government.

Nevertheless, Kocharyan suggested Government to add sums for science by 1,5 milliard drams in the next year budget.
