Parliament Rejects De-Oligarchization Law In Third Reading

პრლამენტის სხდომა

The Parliament rejects the draft law "on deoligarchization". Anri Okhanashvili, the Chairman of the Legal Issues Committee, presented the draft law in the third reading at the plenary session, however, as he noted, the discussion was formal and he appealed to his colleagues not to support the draft during the voting.

"Regulating the issue of de-oligarchization through the law was not our "know-how". The structures of the European Union approved the regulation of the issue by law in Ukraine, and we followed the approach approved by the European Union, but since there is a proposal of the European Commission that the issue should not be regulated by law, but by an action plan, we suggest not to support the project during the voting," Anri Okhanashvili addressed the parliament.

Georgian Dream Chairman Irakli Kobakhidze made a statement on the same topic on September 18. According to Kobakhidze, the Georgian EU Integration Commission under the Government has already approved the project of de-oligarchization action plan, which will be finalized after additional consultations with the European Commission. The draft action plan for de-oligarchization will be sent to the Venice Commission by the end of this week. Accordingly, under the conditions of approval of the action plan, the law on "de-oligarchization" adopted by the Parliament in two readings lost its practical relevance.
