Tbilisi. On July 30 the coalition "Media Advocacy" has organized the debates on practical implementation of the so-called "Must Carry" principle of the mandatory broadcasting transit. The representatives of the National Communications Commission, cable operators, media, international and civil society organizations have participated in the meeting. In the opinion of CSO representatives, the "Must Carry" principle affects only a part of voters, but nevertheless it is crucial for forming the pluralist environment ahead of the elections.

As agreed at the meeting, the Georgian National Communications Commission will develop the resolution on the "Approval of Procedure for Media Participation and Its Application in the Election Process" in cooperation with the civil society organizations.
