Powers of self-governing units

1. The powers of the state authorities and the self-governing units shall be separated.

2. Self-governing units shall be authorised to take decisions, on their own initiative and in compliance with legislation, on all
matters that do not fall within the exclusive powers of the State or of the autonomous republics, and which are not excluded from
the powers of self-governing units by law.

3. A self-governing unit shall exercise its powers independently and be responsible for doing so within the ambit of the legislation
of Georgia. A self-governing unit’s powers, as defined by the organic law, shall be full and exclusive.

4. The State shall delegate powers to a self-governing unit on the basis of a legislative act or agreement by transferring the
appropriate material and financial resources.

5. The state authorities shall exercise legal supervision over the activities of a self-governing unit. To ensure that relevant decisions
are made, the supervision of the activities of a self-governing unit shall be permissible only with respect to decisions made on the
basis of delegated powers. State supervision shall be exercised in accordance with the procedures established by the organic law
and in accordance with the principle of proportionality.
