EU Integration Committee approves draft law on e-commerce

The Committee discussed the legal package introduced by the Deputy Economic Minister, Guram Guramishvili. The package aims to fulfill the DCFTA and EUAA commitments, and to regulate activity related to the e-commerce/information society services and the responsibility of the service providers. The Draft determines the principles of the activity of the providers and users, as well as their rights and obligations.

“Right now, we lack legislation regulating the information service process within society, any of the norms that prohibit the application of general monitoring for intermediate service providers and determine their rights and duties, the inquiry system for deletion of illegal information from the internet, as well as the basis for deletion and the legal basis for exemption from this obligation. Further, there are no regulations safeguarding the rights of users in the e-commerce processes and the obligation of the service providers to provide minimal information, which results in reduced trust in the providers and increases risks for the users.” the report noted.

As Guramishvili noted, the development of a legal framework in the e-commerce sphere is related to the development of entrepreneurship and e-commerce in the country, facilitation of due operation of the digital market, as well as additional guarantees for the users and trust-building for the e-commerce platforms, which will promote Georgia’s integration to the European digital market and global trade area.

“The package is essential since it is related to the entrepreneurial and e-commerce development, integration of Georgia to the global commercial area, fulfillment of the Association Agreement commitments, due operation of the domestic market to enhance the trade image of the country, and improvement of the socio-economic situation of the population,” he noted.
