The Separation of Competition Law Enforcement Powers Between Competition and Regulatory Authorities in Georgia
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The presented work is focused on researching the essence of public enforcement of Georgia’s competition legislation, its mechanisms, and the issue of separating its enforcement competencies between the respective state authorities. In 2020, the Georgian Law on Competition underwent comprehensive reform. This reform introduced a unique approach to the enforcement of said Law. In particular, the Competition and Consumer Protection Agency and the National Regulatory Authorities were defined as executive bodies of the Georgian Law on Competition. Furthermore, due to these reforms, the law now envisages many procedures and methods to separate the enforcement competencies between these state bodies. However, the relevant procedural provisions do not provide a straightforward solution to all the issues related to the separation of competencies. In the last five years, it has been seen that such gaps have led to significant issues in practice. Therefore, the sole purpose of the presented paper is to study these problems and offer relevant scientific solutions.
