Special Committee reviewing cases of persons employed in Education System of Georgia and dismissed on political grounds held another work meeting at the Ministry of Education and Science of Georgia. 830 applications addressed to the Committee were submitted to the Ministry before January 14, 2013.  The Committee has reviewed the applications and made interim decisions on each of them: 565 applications were recognized as being deficient, 203 applications were sent to the relevant department for the further review as they concerned the issues beyond the Committee competences.
The Committee made a decision not to review 85 applications out of 565, as deficiencies were not corrected by the end of the deadline.  212 applications are currently under revision.

Special Committee is composed of the representatives from the Ministry, civil society organizations and Public Defender’s Office. Conclusion of the Committee is of recommendative character for the Ministry as the Committee only proves or denies the fact of dismissal on political grounds.
