Summary
The agenda item was the second reading of draft law 474, amending the Prison Law and other related laws, initiated by the Government of the Republic. The presentation was given by member of the Legal Affairs Committee, Ando Kiviberg. The draft law aims to clarify the provisions concerning the database of inmates, detainees, arrestees, and probationers, primarily in relation to the need to conduct background checks on individuals visiting prisoners. Kiviberg explained that no amendments were received by the deadline. Although the Data Protection Inspectorate submitted a letter of concern, a consensus was reached with representatives of the Ministry of Justice before the committee meeting, so no further amendments were deemed necessary. The leading committee made a unanimous proposal to conclude the second reading of the draft law and to place it on the agenda of the full Riigikogu for the third reading on December 11th. No debate was opened, and the second reading of the draft law was concluded.
