In the draft resolution, paragraph 7, replace the first and second sentences with the following sentences:
"The Assembly welcomes the government's efforts in 2013 to depoliticise the appointment process of the public broadcaster. The Assembly however expresses its concern over recent difficulties experienced by the parliament in appointing an independent and impartial board of trustees to oversee its work, and urges both the majority and the opposition in parliament to avoid any politicisation of the composition and work of the board of trustees and ultimately the public broadcaster itself."
Explanatory Note :
The government has introduced and implemented important reforms to depoliticise, provide pluralism and transparency in the appointment process of the public broadcaster. The OSCE has applauded amendments to the appointment process of the Georgian Public Broadcaster's Board of Trustees for providing pluralism and transparency. Reforms continue with input from civil society.
