The Georgian National Communications Commission considered the item of imposing sanctions on four regional broadcasters in the framework of administrative proceedings. Three broadcasters Tanamgzavri, 5th Channel and Trialeti were given a warning, but towards Television and Radio Press Company Zari administrative proceedings were dismissed.

A letter was sent on June 2, 2011 to broadcasters by which the Georgian National Communications Commission charged the broadcasting license holders with submitting CD/DVD recordings of last month programmes to the Commission in accordance with article 49 of the Law of Georgia on Broadcasting. The above-mentioned broadcasters submitted the requested information incompletely or belatedly, or not submitted at all.

The representatives of four regional broadcasters attended the session held at GNCC. They were given a possibility to express their positions. After examining the proofs the Georgian National Communications Commission took a decision to give a warning to Trialeti Ltd, 5th Channel Ltd and Trialeti Ltd. As for Television and Radio Press Company Zari Ltd administrative proceedings were dismissed because of the absence of violation.
