"As far as you are concerned according to the consensus achieved between Parliamentarian minority and majority the government of Georgia will deliver a report to the Georgian population and the Parliament. The problems bothering population, the vision of the government and the ways of solving them, the methods of abolishment of challenges facing the country - are the major issues that the representatives of government will stress their attention on. The Parliamentary opposition raised the issue of accountability of the government first and after certain discussions and works, the consensus was achieved. So, starting from the next week, it might be said that the Parliament would work in a contingency regime. Mikheil Saakashvili welcomes this initiative and critique and the format of dialogue", Manana Manjgaladze noted.
