Changes are still expected in the composition of the government, which will be approved by the single-party parliament by the end of the week. The position of the Minister of Justice will become vacant, as Gocha Lortkipanidze, who was nominated for this position, has been appointed a criminal judge in the Hague.
According to "Mtavari", he may be replaced by Mamuka Mdinaradze. However, the MPs did not want to clarify the information yet.
"We welcome the government nominated by the Prime Ministerial candidate, Giorgi Gakharia, and one of the most important facts you mentioned was the election of Gocha Lortkipanidze as a judge in the Hague Tribunal. This fact proves once again that the candidates proposed for the Cabinet of Ministers are highly professional", –said Nino Tsilosani, chairwoman of the Parliamentary Committee on Agricultural Affairs.
At the same time, it is reported that the Ministry of Culture, Science and Education will become a separate ministry, which may be headed by Tea Tsulukiani or pianist Eliso Bolkvadze.
Recall that the hearing of the members of the Cabinet of Ministers in the single-party parliament continues - the plans of the Ministry of Regional Development, Economy, Rural Development and Finance have already been discussed.
