GD Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze declares, that the optimization of the staff of state-owned enterprises operating in the railway and energy sectors has brought the country savings of 52.5 million GEL this year, and this process continues.
"Optimization has been carried out in several state-owned enterprises and the leadership has changed. Optimization was carried out especially in the part of state-owned enterprises operating in the railway and energy sectors," Kobakhidze said.
According to him, as a result of the optimization, 36 million GEL will be saved in Georgian Railways, and 16.5 million GEL in state-owned enterprises operating in the energy sector.
“This process will already allow Georgian Railways to save more than 36 million GEL. As for the energy sector, state-owned enterprises, including Electrosystem, SakRusEnergo, Gas Transportation Company and others, there will also be savings of at least 16.5 million GEL,” Irakli Kobakhidze noted.
