Abstract

This Code provides for administrative offences (misdemeanors) covering practically all the areas of law. The objective of the legislation of Georgia on administrative offences is to protect the property, socioeconomic, political and personal rights and freedoms of citizens, also the rights and legitimate interests of enterprises, institutions and organisations, the established rule of governance, state and public order; to ensure the avoidance of offences; and to educate citizens in the spirit of exact and strict observance of the Constitution of Georgia, laws of Georgia, respect for the rights of other citizens, honour and dignity, the ways of social life and fulfilment of assigned duties. To accomplish the objective, the Code of Georgia on Administrative Offences determines the actions or inaction that constitute an administrative offence, as well as administrative penalties, the procedure for their imposition and the administrative bodies (officials) authorised to impose administrative penalties on perpetrators.
