YEREVAN. – The effect of many programs implemented in Armenia's penitentiaries will be visible in a couple of years, Justice Minister Hovhannes Manukyan said during the meeting of government on Thursday.

He recalled that the government had signed a memorandum on electricity supply in penitentiaries with the Renewable Energy Foundation.

It is necessary to modernize the heating system, to replace doors, windows and roofs to reduce energy losses that will cut energy expenses by about a third, the Minister said.

“This will lead to improvement of conditions for the inmates,” he said, adding that the Ministry is working to improve the food quality.
