Tbilisi. The Public Defender has appealed to the Parliament and the State Constitutional Commission with regard to expansion of the authority of the Constitutional Court. The Public Defender believes that it is necessary to expand the powers of the Constitutional Court, and accordingly, the areal of its constitutional control.
''The Constitutional Court examines the constitutionality of only normative acts in relation to the rights and freedoms enshrined in the Chapter 2 of the Constitution of Georgia, while the bill suggests examination of constitutionality of individual legal acts and enforced decisions of common courts as well. According to the bill, the authority of the Constitutional Court goes beyond exercising control of norms and carries out constitutional control on the basis of a real claim'', is noted in the statement.
