Justice Minister Rati Bregadze Highlights the Success of Another Project under the Ministry’s Grant Program
As part of the project, recommendations were developed to enhance the standard for justifying normative acts in the law-making process. The project’s authors conducted a thorough analysis of EU member states’ practices regarding the justification of draft laws, focusing on the forms and mechanisms used in explanatory notes. The research findings were subsequently presented.
The project aims to improve Georgia's legislative process by aligning the standard for explanatory notes with EU practices. The recommendations were prepared by Associate Professor Vasil Gonashvili and Professor Nana Chigladze from Tbilisi State University.
The presentation of the project results was attended by the heads of relevant Ministry departments, representatives from the academic community, and the authors themselves.
Each year, the Ministry of Justice holds a grant competition aimed at encouraging innovation in services, strengthening human rights protection, and enhancing legal security. This year, the Ministry is funding 17 winning projects through the grant program, which aims to foster civil society participation in Ministry activities and support civil initiatives.
