problems in the field of cultural heritage it is crucial to declare the
moratorium on the new large-scale constructions in the historical part of
Tbilisi, as well as to establish with the Ministry of Culture and Monument
Protection of Georgia the commission consisting of qualified staff, which will
assess the expediency of objects or projects that attract huge public interest.The organization offers to the Ministry of Culture to start working on
the amendments to the Law on Cultural Heritage based on consultations with the
field professionals, as well as calls on the authorities to secure public
discussions prior to the approval of large-scale projects. Further, the

back-up plan of Tbilisi and approve it afterwards."Tiflis Hamqari” is ready to actively cooperate with respective agencies
