The purpose of the program is improving the efficiency of parliament by institutionalizing relations with voters, improving transparency, strengthening the supervision function of parliament and increase public confidence in the supreme legislative body activating its participation in this work.

Bakradze said the communications center will allow MPs to work more closely with the voters with the help of regional television companies and online media.
