On October 25 the RA National Assembly accepted the legislative initiative of the RA Government on making changes in the law on Procuratorate in the first reading.

Thus, the period of validity of the temporary legal act on defining annually the official remuneration of the RA Prosecutor General in a separate article of the Law on State Budget is extended for one year, until December 31, 2013.

Two other legislative packages aimed at ensuring the execution of the state budget were also adopted in the first reading. They also regulate public servants’ remuneration based on the joint income tax that will become operative from 2013.

The legislative, executive (republic) and judicial bodies of the workers' official rates or calculating odds, the percentage defined in RA Judicial Code, and a dozen laws passed in the first reading of the amendments will be regulated in such a way that the former level of the remuneration would be preserved after tax deduction, which was provided before the law “About income tax” came into force. For that purpose public servants payroll coefficients of some sectors were reviewed.

The changes in the package of the law on Income tax and related laws suggests that the income connected with service of the military personnel and their peers, as well as the rescue service, would be included in the tax system since January 1, 2013, ensuring equal taxation for all. According to the legislation these revenues are not subject to income tax.
