Unlike analogous offices in some other nations, such as a vice-presidency, the Georgian Vice Prime Minister possesses no special constitutional powers as such, though they will always have particular responsibilities in government. They do not assume the duties and powers of the Prime Minister in the latter's absence, illness, or death.
