JUDGES OF THE CONSTITUTIONAL COURT DID NOT RECEIVE SUPPLEMENTS IN SEPTEMBER AND OCTOBER

In September - October 2020, the judges of the Constitutional Court did not receive any supplements. The employees of the Constitutional Court did not receive any supplements for October.
This was conditioned by the financial optimization carried out in the Constitutional Court in regard to the decision "On declaring martial law in the Republic of Armenia" on September 27, 2020. At the same time, in October 2020, upon the directive of the President of the Constitutional Court Arman Dilanyan, 84 employees of the Court received a supplement equal to 30% of their salaries for the work performed during September․ The supplements were provided at the expense of the fund for the supplements envisaged by the budget (the directive did not not apply to the judges of the Constitutional Court).
In addition, during October-November, the heads of two divisions of the Staff of the Constitutional Court (on a one-time basis) received a bonus equivalent to one month's salary.
In this context, in the interview with "Haykakan Zhamanak" daily newspaper, President of the Constitutional Court Arman Dilanyan noted that taking into account the situation in the country, the Constitutional Court as a state body tries to balance its expenses as much as possible and return the saved funds to the State Budget.
