By Plenary Sessions: Martin Helme

The legislative focus is directed toward the planning process and transparency issues, emphasizing the autonomy of local government self-governance. The aim is to clarify which stages and impact assessments citizens need to monitor in order to protect their interests against large-scale projects.

The focus is on the government's inability to present promised bills, especially those concerning the minor tax reduction (a 2% change in the tax rate) and the increase in defense expenditure. He/She criticizes the government for failing to deliver on these legislative priorities, even though the overall workload is low.

Legislative focus is currently directed toward amending or repealing the legislation that governs e-election procedures, with a demand for the system's complete prohibition. The speaker is a staunch opponent of the existing electoral order, basing their stance on court decisions.

The legislative focus is currently on supporting a tax reduction bill, which is likely aimed at lowering the VAT on foodstuffs. The speaker is a strong proponent of this initiative and is leveraging their past experience to justify its budgetary impact.

The main legislative priority is the introduction of an extraordinary bank tax, the draft bill for which has been repeatedly submitted and whose adoption is being demanded. Additionally, the focus is on repealing the government's tax increases (e.g., the car tax) and requiring adequate standards for regulating wind farm noise to protect the health of residents.

The speaker is focusing on two legislative topics: opposition to the bill that includes gender quotas and sanctions, and support for the tax reduction bills initiated by the opposition. He/She is an active opponent of the government's initiatives and a supporter of the opposition's economic proposals.
