Non-governmental organizations will meet with the President today. Giorgi Margvelashvili will hear their opinions about the bill on the GPB. The third sector urges the head of state to use the veto right and hopes that, they will be able to convince, the parliamentary majority not to change the law.
"These changes are actually a problem for private sector broadcasters and, first of all, it concerns the reality related to the advertising market. Of course, the veto on the Broadcasting Law is one of the most important element for convincing the majority not to amend the law , "said Sulkhan Saladze, Chairman of GYLA.
Natia Kuprashvili, a representative of the Coalition for Media Advocacy, says that the president`s veto will be a kind of insurance for media. According to Kuprashvili, the law damages media environment in the country.
