Tbilisi. Chapter 9 of the Human Rights Action Plan describes its objective as – ''ensuring freedom of expression for Georgian citizens''. IDFI believes that the wording used in this chapter does not adequately reflect the steps that need to be taken by the government in order to improve the situation in terms of freedom of expression. For this reason, the wording – ''ensuring freedom of expression'' must be changed to – ''improving the situation in terms of freedom of expression''. The latter wording of the objective ensures that its components are proactive in nature.
