The Chamber of Control of Georgia sent its first notification about financial declaration to the public organization “Georgian Dream.” In addition to that, head of service at the Chamber of Control Natia Mogeladze told the Interpresnews they intensively work to discover similar organizations.

“We are not speaking about charity foundations. We are focused on the entities which are directly or indirectly connected with the goals of political parties or with political and election goals of a concrete person. We intensively work to discover similar organizations though the Georgian Dream was the first public organization which received our notification. Their statement about their interest in election became motive of our decision,” said Natia Mogeladze and added that concrete person might have several charity foundations but they might not be linked with political activities at all.

“So, we are not motivated to study the activities of any particular person. We will not examine every organization. The Chamber of Control acts in accordance to the law,” Mogeladze said.

According to her, the main motive of the Chamber of Control is to ensure transparency principle, to inform the society about the activities of political parties as well as physical and legal persons related with them.

Head of monitoring office said the Chamber of Control will check reliability and relevance of the statement of the non-governmental organization “Pure Politics” [the latter alleged Bidzina Ivanishvili funded newspaper “Alia”] and if the information is proved the Chamber will take relevant measures.
