Galstyan: Today, Our Homeland Looks More Like A Mine.

Www.1in.am reports that ARF-D Member of Parliament Lilit Galstyan stated that even if some reforms have been made still the bill titled “On Amending the Law on the Examination of the Influence on the Environment” is in violation of the 1998 Aarhus Convention, depriving the people of the rights regarding access to information, public participation and access to justice, in governmental decision-making processes on matters concerning the local, national and transboundary environment granted by the Convention. “Today, our homeland looks like a mine” she said and pointed out that sanctions against violations of the law haven’t been included in the amended version.
