The Minister of Economy and Sustainable Development of Georgia, Natia Turnava has said that a preliminary permit issued to a deep-water port in Poti is abolished.
“First of all, I would like to say that the document, which was issued, is not a construction permit; it is a so-called preliminary use document of a land use, which was issued by one of our agencies, in particular, by the order of the head of the Agency for Construction and Technical Supervision, but this issue has not been agreed with any member of the government, including me,” Turnava said at a briefing on Thursday.
“In addition, as it turned out, that there are procedural violations on the basis of which this document was issued; therefore, today we have made a decision and this document has been cancelled. And the head of the agency has been dismissed”, Turnava said.
Yesterday it became known that apart from the Anaklia Deep Sea Port, another deep–water port might be built in Poti. In particular, APM Terminals Poti said that on May 2 the Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development of Georgia issued permission for the construction of a new multifunctional, deep-water port in Poti.
