Submission of the three draft laws on “Organ Transplantation”, "Tissues and Cell Transplantation" and "Reproductive Technologies" to the Parliament of Georgia was planned  in the  December, 2019 (according to the project).

Therefore, we kindly ask you to send us the last versions of the laws on “Organ Transplantation” and "Tissues and Cell Transplantation" (English versions) and first draft law on "Reproductive Technologies" (Georgian and English versions). In order to revise Georgian draft versions of the mentioned laws in accordance of the English ones, its essential to designate interpreter who will assist us in this activities. (We were unable to update Georgian versions since English versions of these laws were not completed during the mission visit).

Hereby, we ask you to send us table of concordance regarding compliance of the Georgian Law on Reproductive Technologies with EU Directives.

As for the RIA reports, I would like to remind you, that they should be prepared within a limited timeframe, until January, 2020.
