The Parliamentary working group created to review judicial reforms for fulfilling conditions outlined by the European Union for granting Georgia the membership candidate status will hold its first meeting today.

Chaired by Parliament Speaker Shalva Papuashvili, it will also involve members of opposition from Girchi, Citizens, European Socialists and For Georgia parties. MP Khatuna Samnidze, the Chair of the Republican Party, also plans to participate.

The other part of the Parliamentary opposition has rejected participation on the grounds of having no confidence in the Georgian Dream, and demanded “concrete compromise steps” to be included in the process.
