The Ministry of Justice is ready to discuss draft law on domestic violence
About a year ago, “Coalition to stop violence against women” represented to the executive and legislative power draft law on “Preventing Domestic Violence”. The executive did not respond to the application of Coalition, while only a few of NA deputies met with representatives of the civil society to discuss draft law.
With the initiative of Arpine Hovhannisyan/ former member of the Republican faction making up the majority in the Parliament/ members of the Coalition met with the representatives of the Republican Party. Today Arpine Hovhannisyan is in the executive power, as a Minister of Justice. It is interesting if her appointment in that position will have influence on the adoption of the law.
