To conclude, the Venice Commission reiterates its recommendations issued in the initial Opinion, including the overall call for a more comprehensive reform – instead of frequent, limited changes – that meets international obligations and standards and addresses prior recommendations, and which is built on broad consensus after extensive public consultations with all relevant stakeholders. The Venice Commission also reiterates its final statements in the initial Opinion: As Georgia works to further its application for membership to the European Union, the Commission encourages the authorities “to use this as an impetus to further enhance the democratic process. All States need to see democracy as a dynamic process that necessitates sustained dialogue, within an inclusive parliamentary process engaging civil society, and fosters a spirit of cooperation amongst all stakeholders in the interest of a common good.”
