Summary

The second agenda item concerned the first reading of draft resolution 646 amending the Riigikogu resolution, as presented by the Foreign Affairs Committee. The presenter was Ester Karuse, a member of the Foreign Affairs Committee. During the draft's procedure, the composition of the representatives was clarified, and the need for members of the Baltic Assembly’s Estonian delegation was discussed, based on decisions made in cooperation with the committee. From the committee's explanations, it became clear that following the expiry of Hele Everausi’s term of office, it was desired to appoint Irja Lutsar as her replacement on the Baltic Assembly delegation; this change was presented unanimously, and deadlines for amendments were set for 4 p.m. on May 16th. As no amendments were received, the draft was directed to full text preparation and it was recommended to support it. The second part of the session focused on the draft's further procedure and final vote.
