# Compliance Monitoring Systems

> Source: legal.ge, https://legal.ge/en/service/licensing-and-regulatory-permits-en/compliance-monitoring-systems-en

Receiving a permit does not mean the end of state control: the permit-issuing authority monitors compliance with the permit conditions and, in case of violation, applies the full arsenal of liability — from fines to suspension and cancellation of the permit. On this page you will see how this system works, what timelines and guarantees the permit holder has, and how decisions of the issuing authority can be appealed.

## Rights and Duties of the Permit Issuer

The permit-issuing authority issues permits in the cases and by the procedure established by law, modifies them, or cancels them. It maintains the departmental permit registry, keeps the documentation submitted by the permit seeker, and exercises, in the manner established by law, control over compliance with the permit conditions.

For transparency, the issuing authority publishes, within 10 days of adopting a decision, information on the issuance, modification, or cancellation of a permit issued through a simplified administrative proceeding. Information on a permit containing personal data or state and commercial secrets is published in the manner established by the General Administrative Code and the law on personal data protection.

### What happens if permit conditions are not fulfilled?

The holder is fined; if the conditions are not met within the set period the fine is tripled, on repeated non-fulfillment it is tripled again, and if all measures fail the issuing authority cancels the permit.

### What are the grounds for cancelling a permit?

The holder's request; death or liquidation (declaration as deceased, recognition as missing, or as a recipient of support); non-fulfillment of statutory permit conditions; and a court judgment convicting the person and depriving it of the right to carry out the activity.

### How is a permit suspended?

Where there is danger to human life and health or to the epidemiological situation, the issuing authority suspends the permit fully or partially; the decision must be confirmed by the court within 24 hours, otherwise it is deemed cancelled and the permit is restored.

### Can a cancellation decision be appealed?

Yes — to a superior administrative authority or to court. An appeal does not automatically suspend the decision: a separate decision of the issuing authority, the complaint-examining body, or the court is required.

### What is the special manager for?

The special manager is appointed by the court to secure the fulfillment of permit conditions; he acts in the permit holder's name and at the holder's expense, and the court approves his reports.
