Government to Create Agency for Public Organizations
The government is planning to set up a new agency to help public organizations in Georgia. The “State Grant Management Agency” will give money to groups that do good work.
A draft law has been sent to the Parliament and will be discussed quickly. This means it might become a law soon.
According to the government, this agency will help public organizations by giving them money from the state budget. This year, 20 million GEL (a type of currency) is being allocated for this purpose.
The new agency will have around ten employees. Its main job will be to give grants to public organizations that are doing important work in Georgia.
Public organizations play a big role in making sure democracy works well. They help the government by monitoring its activities, offering solutions to problems, and providing services to different groups of people.
Some European countries already do this kind of thing with state funding. The government in Georgia wants to follow their example and give more support to public organizations that are working on important projects.
The new agency will be under the control of the Georgian government. This means it will have some say in what kind of work these public organizations are doing and how they get funded.
