By Plenary Sessions: Peeter Ernits

The speaker took part in the plenary session debate, giving three addresses, one of which was a long and detailed critique of energy policy. Recent, extended conversations with energy experts were mentioned, suggesting active knowledge gathering on the subject.

The speaker is an active questioner during the plenary session, repeatedly raising questions regarding the substance of the procedure, impact assessments, and the practical rationale of international agreements. He notes that he has been following the Riigikogu’s work for the last couple of weeks, but admitted that he joined the discussion on one specific topic late (having “gotten on the train halfway through”).

The pattern of behavior indicates active participation during the plenary session, specifically in the question-and-answer phase following the minister's report. The speaker consecutively poses two short and focused questions, the second of which specifically requests the minister's personal opinion.

There is too little data.

The speaker is highly active at the plenary session, posing questions on several different topics (energy, land tax, the tobacco directive) within a short period of time. This pattern of activity is aimed at direct and detailed questioning, focusing primarily on demanding accountability from the presenters and the government.

Not enough data

The speaker is actively participating in the plenary session of the Riigikogu, posing direct and critical questions to the Prime Minister. He referenced his prior observation of the situation, noting, "I watched that whole dance unfold from a bit of a distance," as well as conversations with energy experts to gain a deeper understanding of the issue. He made repeated appeals to investigative journalism.

The speaker notes that he has the "pleasure to share a few thoughts here after a long time," adding that he has been "watching the work of parliament from the sidelines" for the past few years, hinting at a possible return or increased activity following a break. His address is connected to the report by the Chancellor of Justice, which he considers an important and refreshing event. He also references his previous experience being present in the chamber.

The speaker is active during plenary sessions, repeatedly posing questions within a short timeframe to both rapporteurs and former ministers. Information concerning activities or travel outside of the Riigikogu sessions is unavailable.

The speaker himself notes that he has not been present in the chamber for two years, suggesting irregular or recently resumed activity during plenary sessions. His appearance is linked to the debate on a specific bill, to which he dedicates several brief and intense interventions.

The speaking activity during the period in question is restricted to one appearance, tied to the commencement of the duties of a Riigikogu member in the 15th convocation. The rhythm of future appearances has not been determined.
