The MRDI acts as the coordinating entity between the governors, self-governmental entities and various Ministries. Today’s meeting was held within the referenced format. “The Gas Transportation Company provided us with the information on existing status of various objects and the works scheduled. It was clarified that in most cases the works are completed, however gas supply is not provided because of different causes, e.g. licensing at the Georgian National Energy and Water Supply Regulatory Commission is under way or the property delivery undergoes associated procedures at the Ministry of Economy. Due to our involvement in above mentioned processes and coordination of the referenced organizations will accelerate these processes and gas supply will be provided to many villages” – Maya Tskitishvili stated. At today’s meeting held at the MRDI the talk concerned the amelioration issues too. Deputy Minister of Agriculture notified the attendants of the meeting and Governors of the current works and the ones scheduled in the regions.
