GD prepares amendments on family values and minor protection
The ruling Georgian Dream party has proposed constitutional amendments concerning family values and the protection of minors, Mamuka Mdinaradze, the leader of the parliamentary majority, announced during today’s briefing.
Outlined below are the key provisions of the draft constitutional law:
Article 1:
1. Marriage, as regulated by legislation, is defined as the union between one genetic man and one genetic woman, both of whom must be at least 18 years old.
2. Adoption or foster care of a minor is permitted solely for spouses or heterosexual individuals who are legally married under the Constitution and laws of Georgia.
3. Any medical procedures related to gender reassignment are prohibited.
Official documents issued by the state or local authorities will only indicate the individual’s biological gender.
4. Any decision made by public authorities or private entities that restricts the use of gender-defined concepts is deemed invalid.
5. Gatherings aimed at promoting same-sex relationships, incest, adoption or foster care by same-sex couples, gender reassignment procedures, or the avoidance of gender-specific terms are prohibited.
6. Distribution of materials promoting same-sex relationships, incest, adoption or foster care by same-sex couples, gender reassignment procedures, or the avoidance of gender-specific terms is prohibited.
7. Education institutions, public or private, are prohibited from providing information that promotes same-sex relationships, incest, adoption or foster care by same-sex couples, gender reassignment procedures, or the avoidance of gender-specific terms.
Article 2:
This law shall take effect immediately upon publication.
In addition, it is necessary to amend Article 30 of the Georgian Constitution by including a new paragraph 3 that explicitly states the assurance of protecting family values and minors through the constitutional law of Georgia, which is an integral element of the Georgian Constitution.
