Failure to report the psychiatric diagnosis of a person liable for military service (Art. 196⁶)

Who is liable under this article?

A medical institution that has issued a conclusion on a psychiatric disorder of a person liable for military service and has failed to notify the corresponding competent authority within 10 calendar days of issuing the conclusion.

What is the fine?

For a first breach — 100 GEL. If the breach is repeated within 1 year of the imposition of the administrative penalty — 300 GEL.

How is the notification period counted?

As 10 calendar days from the day the conclusion is issued, meaning that calendar days are counted. A breach of the period is established by comparing the dates of the conclusion and of the notification.

What is the condition for repetition?

The second breach must occur within one year of the imposition of the administrative penalty — only then does the 300 GEL fine under the second part apply.

What Article 196⁶ of the Administrative Offences Code covers

Article 196⁶ of the Code of Administrative Offences of Georgia establishes administrative liability for failing to report a conclusion on a psychiatric disorder diagnosed in respect of a person liable for military service. The norm is addressed to medical institutions: where an institution has issued such a conclusion and has not notified the corresponding competent authority within the established period, this constitutes an administrative offence and is punished by a fine.

The provision serves the protection of state interests connected with military service: information about the health status of a person liable for military service must reach the competent authorities in due time. The subject of the offence is precisely the party on whom the duty of notification is imposed — that is, the corresponding medical institution.
