About 120 employees of the RA Ministry of Finance have been let go, being replaced with employees from the tax services department, reports local daily Hraparak.
According to the newspaper's information, the Financial Oversight Inspection department has been completely dissolved, which caused great joy to some, as it was considered one of the most corrupt. Also dismissed were employees of the ministry's press service.
"It's simply not clear who will work in the renewed finance ministry, and what are people who were made redundant, whose civil servant status did not protect them from unemployment, going to do," reports the paper.
