Amendments Proposed to Law on Representative on International Legal Matters
1 / 2

A number of powers of the representative will be clearly stipulated with appropriate amendments to the Law on the Representative on International Legal Matters, in particular, regarding submitting applications to the European Court and the International Court of Justice to apply temporary or interim measures.

The representative on international legal matters can submit a requirement for an interim measure to the European Court on behalf of the Republic of Armenia, and will also have the opportunity to submit a petition to the International Court of Justice without the Government decision on applying a claim security measure. As a result of international arbitration or submission of the dispute to the court or negotiations carried out within the framework of international arbitration disputes, a reconciliation agreement may be concluded, which must be submitted to the Government for approval. Lawyers will be sent to international courts, the Department for the Execution of Judgements of the European Court of Human Rights and international arbitration centers based on the decision of the RA Prime Minister. According to the Representative on international legal matters Yeghishe Kirakosyan, if the given person is not a public servant, then a corresponding contract will be signed with him. Yeghishe Kirakosyan noted that until now the issue has not been clearly regulated, but the process was carried out based on the Government decision.

Presenting the endorsement of the NA Standing Committee on State and Legal Affairs, Arpine Davoyan mentioned that if the proposed regulation is adopted, the legislative powers of the Representative will be more clearly regulated, as a result of which the quality of protection of the interests of the Republic of Armenia and the efficiency of the Representative’s activities will increase.
