  • Pre-Election Monitoring of October 8, 2016 Parliamentary Elections Second Interim Report July 17 - August 8
    International Society for Fair Elections and Democracy Pre-Election Monitoring of October 8, 2016 Parliamentary Elections Second Interim Report July 17 - August 8 Publishing this report is made possible by the generous support of the American people, through the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and the National Endowment for Democracy (NED). The views expressed in this report belong solely to ISFED and may not necessarily reflect the views of the USAID, the United States Government and the NED. 1. Introduction The International Society for Fair Elections and Democracy (ISFED) has been monitoring October 8, 2016 elections of the Parliament of Georgia and Ajara Supreme Council since July 1, with support from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and the National Endowment for Democracy (NED). The present report covers the period from July 18 to August 8, 2016. 2. Key Findings Compared to the previous reporting period, campaigning by political parties and candidates has become more intense. ISFED long-term observers (LTOs) monitored a total of 114 meetings of electoral subjects with voters throughout Georgia, from July 18 through August 7. As the election campaigning moved into a more active phase, the number of election violations grew considerably. Failure of relevant authorities to take adequate actions in response to these violations may pose a threat to free and fair electoral environment. During the reporting period ISFED found 4 instances of intimidation/harassment based on political affiliation, 2 cases of physical violence, 3 cases of possible vote buying, 4 cases of campaigning by unauthorized persons, 8 cases of misuse of administrative resources, 4 cases of interference with pre- election campaigning, 4 cases of use of hate speech, 7 cases of local self-governments making changes in budgets for social and infrastructure projects; 3 cases of misconduct by election commission members.

  • Social Screening of Subprojects
    Public Disclosure Authorized Gas Supply and Access Road Rehabilitation for Vartsikhe Cellar LTD in Village Vartsikhe, Baghdati Municipality Public Disclosure Authorized Sub-Project Environmental and Social Screening and Environmental Management Plan Public Disclosure Authorized WORLD BANK FINANCED SECOND REGIONAL AND MUNICIPAL INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT PROJECT (SRMIDP) Public-Private Investment (PPI) Public Disclosure Authorized November 2018 The Sub-Project Description The Subproject (SP) site is located in village Vartsikhe, Baghdati municipality, Imereti region, Western Georgia. The SP includes rehabilitation of a 775-meter-long road from Vartsikhe-Didveli motorway main road to the Vartsikhe Cellar. The road is registered as a municipal property (with the cadastral code: 30.06.33.008) and the road bed does not overlap with the privately-owned agricultural land plots under vineyards and other crops located on the sides of the road, so works will be completed within the ROW. Furthermore, contractor does not need any access to the adjacent lands to complete the civil works. No residential houses are located at the road sides. The road to be rehabilitated is in a very poor condition. The first half section is covered with ground and gravel surface, while another half has no cover and only traces of car tires are visible marks of the road bed. According to the SP design, the road will be covered by asphalt and road signs will be arranged. Along the road, there are two culverts, one of them is in a satisfactory condition and one pipe needs to be repaired. The road will be rehabilitated within the following parameters: the width of the carriageway - 6.0m; the width of the shoulders - 0.5m.
