 The Petition of Georgian Non-Governmental and Media Organizations

 We, the representatives of non-governmental and media organizations, while acknowledging the importance of fair and free elections, consider the related legislative amendments of December 2011 unacceptable, as they:

 Limit civic activity, property rights, freedom of expression and political activity;

• Impede the democratic development of the country;
• Impose severe and unjustified responsibilities on the voters;
• Assign unlimited and unconstitutional powers to the Chamber of Control of Georgia, who is the main regulator of party funding in Georgia;
• Pose grave threats to both citizens and civil society, including the media;
• Deteriorate the election environment within the country.

  Thus, for all the reasons listed above, we respectfully demand change to the amendments of this legislation.
