The State Chancellery of Georgia (Georgian: სახელმწიფო კანცელარია) is the headquarters of the Georgian Government that houses the Administration of the Government of Georgia (Georgian: საქართელოს მთავრობის ადმინისტრაცია) and serves as the executive office and official workplace of the Prime Minister of Georgia.[1] The Administration of the Government provides organisational support for the activities of the government, facilitates the preparation of analytical, informational, and other materials, and controls the implementation of the decisions of the government.[2] In addition to serving as the PM's office, the Chancellery is also the meeting place of the Cabinet of Ministers.

History

The State Chancellery was built in 1981. The building initially served as the headquarters of the Central Committee of the Georgian Communist Party, however after Georgia declared its independence from the Soviet Union, it was authorised as the official residence of the President of Georgia. After the Rose Revolution of 2003 and the restoration of the office of Prime Minister, the building was granted a new status as the headquarters of the Government Administration.[3]
