The EU funded project "Better Enforcement System Through Twinning-BESTT" held the 5th Steering Committee Meeting on October 11, 2012 at the National Bureau of Enforcement of Georgia (NBE). The members discussed the main activities of the project within the past project's quarter that lasted from 1 June to 31 August 2012:
Several training sessions were conducted, namely on Summary Proceedings, Statement of Facts, and working with the media. A workgroup of university teachers and projects' experts was established to develop a training module for enforcement issues to be taught at Georgian universities. The basic structure of a new Law on Enforcement Proceedings was elaborated.
The second Addendum to the Twinning Contract will soon be signed by the Delegation of the European Union. It includes an extension of the project until April 30, 2013.
The next Steering Committee Meeting will be held in January 2013.
In the upcoming weeks, study visits for NBE staff to Estonia/Finland on IT-issues and case management and to the Netherlands on organisation and management issues will be undertaken.
