ArmInfo. Armenian Healthcare Minister Arsen Torosyan discussed with head of the State Revenue Committee (SRC) Davit Ananyan the issue of ensuring the safety of excise stamps on goods "when children accidentally swallow them". Torosyan about this reports on his Facebook page.
"Mr. Ananyan said that the SRC is aware of the problem and is already taking steps in this direction," the head of the Ministry of Healthcare wrote.
In particular, in three months new samples of excise stamps made of other materials will be put into circulation. "New brands, firstly, will be better glued to the product, and when unglued, they will be softer and, even if children accidentally swallow them, they will not be dangerous. We also agreed to discuss the issue with manufacturers and importers so that these stamps were attached so that they could not be unglued, " the Minister said.
Arsen Torosyan also urges parents to be as vigilant as possible and to prevent such stickers from falling into the hands of children and swallowing them. The head of the Ministry of Healthcare assures that the health of children is in the center of attention of the government.
