Summary
The draft law amending the Maritime Safety Act, initiated by the Economy Committee, was presented to the Riigikogu for its second reading. The first reading took place on November 4th, and no amendments were received by November 11th; the committee prepared for the second reading at its session on November 12th of this year, inviting the Deputy Secretary General for Maritime Affairs and Water Environment of the Ministry of Climate, Kaupo Läänerand, and the legal advisor of the Maritime Department, Anton Merits. The government’s opinion had not yet been received at that time, but comments were received from various ministries: the Ministry of Finance noted that one paragraph in the explanatory memorandum might leave a misleading impression of additional funds, but in reality these funds are stipulated in the state budget bill.
