Public Defender Meets Tbilisi Metro’s Striker Drivers
Tbilisi. On June 5, 2018, Public Defender Nino Lomjaria met with the drivers of Tbilisi Metro who are on strike and promised them full legal aid.
The Public Defender termed the court's decision to restrict the drivers’ right to strike during non-working hours for an indefinite period of time as unprecedented and comical.
The Public Defender's Office will submit an amicus curiae brief in the nearest future to review the norms of national and international laws related to the right to strike. In addition, the Public Defender addresses the Tbilisi Transport Company and the Tbilisi municipality and offers them Public Defender's involvement in achieving consensus with the Tbilisi Metro drivers.
