MP By-Elections to be Held in April

MP by-elections to fill three vacant seats in the Parliament are expected to be held in April, instead of October 2013, as a result of an amendment to the election code, passed by the Parliament with its third and final reading on Friday.

Three seats in the Parliament became vacant after majoritarian MPs from the Georgian Dream coalition were appointed in the executive government – Tea Tsulukiani, who was elected in Tbilisi’s Nadzaladevi single-mandate constituency was appointed as Justice Minister; Kakha Kaladze, who won majoritarian race in Samtredia constituency became Energy Minister and Archil Kbilashvili, who was a majoritarian MP from Bagdati single-mandate constituency, was appointed as chief prosecutor.
