19:07, 13.05.2025

The Parliament plenary session discussed and approved amendments to the organic Laws on Political Unions of Citizens and on the Constitutional Court of Georgia, with 80 votes in favour, at its third hearing.

The legislative initiative, proposed by the Georgian Dream faction, was presented by Tornike Cheishvili, First Deputy Chairman of the Legal Affairs Committee.

“This legislative package aims to clarify the Constitutional Court’s competencies, address the potential formation of so-called successor parties, and establish appropriate legal mechanisms in response,” Cheishvili stated.

He explained that if a political party is banned and a new so-called successor party is formed, the proposed amendments would ensure an effective legal framework, enabling the Constitutional Court to respond promptly to such cases.
