The ruling party shall not boycott the extraordinary session of the parliament and shall start implementing specific EU requirements
Tbilisi. On 15 July 2022, President of Georgia issued a decree on convening an extraordinary session of the parliament from 18 July 2022, in order to consider a number of issues necessary for granting Georgia the EU candidate status. The President was addressed by 46 opposition MPs requesting that she convene an extraordinary session.
The issues specified for consideration at the extraordinary session are the draft law on constitutional amendments that has already passed its first reading, and the initiated draft laws on the amendments to the Law on Common Courts and on the establishment of anticorruption agency. The consideration of aforementioned bills has been suspended in the Parliament.
Transparency International Georgia calls on the members of the parliamentary majority to discuss the issues of the extraordinary session at committee sittings, take part in the extraordinary plenary sitting and support legislative changes thereby helping our country move forward on the path towards the EU integration.
