Will Eka Beselia and 8 MPs` initiative on suspension of lifetime appointment of judges be support or not ? This is likely to become clear at today"s session. As it is known, the Legal Committee did not support the document. A large part of the parliamentary majority says they have not received concrete answers from the initiators of the bill. The authors of the draft law say that if the issue fails, they will start collecting signatures for the constitutional amendments. They are supported by the "National Movement".
In "European Georgia", they think that it is important to postpone the process of fundamental changes in the judicial system.
"We offer the Parliament to solve the problems in reality and come out of the dead end and we are now in a very open conflict and the representatives of the profession are in a very difficult situation, it will get worse with time" - Levan Gogichaishvili said.
According to the National Movement, they will support Beselia"s initiative to postpone judges" lifetime appointment and this is the first step that will be taken to improve the judiciary system.
"The first step is to stop this process and to declare a moratorium, then we should start calmly but not slowly thinking about the legislative reform of this system," says Roman Gotsiridze.
As for the majority, they criticize the teammates who are opposing them and remember a year ago the consent on the lifetime approval of judges.
"The authors of the draft law can not answer the question whether the draft law is fair when the initiators directly supported lifetime approval of judges a year ago, and one year later we are told that this principle would be problematic, "-says Anri Okhanashvili.
"European Georgia" will present its legislative initiative at today"s session. The draft law includes two main points: the first is the deprivation of the right to judge to the Chinchaladze group and the second, the 3/4 rating voting issue in the Parliament. "European Georgia" think that this principle should be changed and one group of parliament should not approve the judges.
