The parliamentary rules of procedures are being changed to allow Ilia Injia, Varlam Liparteliani, and Nika Elisashvili to form a parliamentary group.

The rules of procedures regarding political groups were changed in the 11th convocation Parliament specifically for the People’s Power party, and it was written that any seven MPs, who had left the party presenting them in the elections, could form a political group.

Today, it became known that Ilia Injia, Varlam Liparteliani, and Nika Elisashvili will leave Georgian Dream and the ranks of the majority, and will continue their activities in the Parliament as an opposition party.

At the plenary session, Guram Macharashvili, a member of parliament from the People's Power party, said that, within the framework of the planned amendments, an amendment should also affect the norm related to political groups and three instead of seven deputies should be given the opportunity to create a political group.

The Speaker of the Parliament, Shalva Papuashvili, agreed with the initiative related to political groups.

The so-called political group was a structural unit specially designed for the 10th convocation of the Parliament, which enjoyed exactly the same rights and privileges as a parliamentary faction. In turn, the initiative to create a political group was determined by the fact that, taking into account the rules for forming a faction, no other political entity, except for the Georgian Dream and the National Movement, could create a faction.
