By Plenary Sessions: Mart Helme

The main legislative priorities are either suspending the e-voting system or bringing it into compliance with the constitution, and abolishing the expense accounts for the Riigikogu. The speaker is acting as the initiator (on behalf of the EKRE faction) in submitting the expense compensation bill and supporting the e-voting bill, both of which are intended to change the current order.

The legislative focus is directed at eliminating legal ambiguity arising from vaguely worded statutes, which creates opportunities for corrupt case management. The speaker is a critic who emphasizes the need for reform, calling for increased legal certainty.

The legislative focus is currently on reforming tax policy, specifically demanding a reduction in the VAT rate for pharmaceuticals and opposing the taxation of pensions. Furthermore, emphasis is placed on the necessity of establishing new state financing schemes aimed at improving housing affordability. The "two chairs law" (referring to holding dual mandates) is also brought up in relation to cooperation possibilities between members of local government (KOV) and the Riigikogu (Parliament).

The legislative focus is aimed at limiting the government's authority to deploy troops on foreign missions. The speaker sharply criticizes the "blank check" previously pushed through by the coalition, which allows the government to send up to 100 personnel on a mission following a perfunctory vote in the Riigikogu.

The speaker focuses on opposing government initiatives, particularly the car tax that imposes forced choices regarding vehicles and introduces registration fees. He positions himself as a defender of citizens' freedoms against government overregulation.

The legislative focus is currently directed at amending the local elections law to restrict the voting rights of third-country nationals, as well as supporting the draft bill to ban burqas and niqabs. The Speaker is critical of the partial solutions proposed by the coalition (e.g., revoking suffrage only from Russian/Belarusian citizens) and demands a comprehensive approach covering all dangerous countries.

The focus is on criticizing the government's decisions and demanding that the government find a positive solution (regarding the Metsküla school issue). It is mentioned that the opposition submits alternative proposals and draft legislation, which are subsequently rejected by the coalition, positioning the speaker as being against the government's inaction.

The legislative focus is currently directed at reforming education policy, specifically demanding the preservation of rural schools and the cessation of centralization. Furthermore, the speaker is addressing the transposition of energy directives, raising doubts about their practical outcome in terms of energy independence. Procedurally, attention is concentrated on regulating the communication style of the Riigikogu Board.

The legislative focus is currently on opposing government bills, particularly the proposed car tax. The speaker criticizes the bill's design, arguing that it has achieved the opposite effect, triggering a boom in the purchase of powerful diesel cars as people rush to avoid the registration tax. Furthermore, the government is criticized for its failure to address substantive issues raised by the opposition.
