By Plenary Sessions: Martin Helme

The legislative focus is on the strong opposition to the government's 2025 state budget bill. The speaker, a critic of the budget proposed by the opposing side, is demanding cuts to major projects (Rail Baltic, the green transition) and ideological spending (NGOs), while simultaneously protecting funding for education and pensions.

The legislative focus centers on the opposition to amendments being introduced into Estonian law through an international convention, specifically those relating to social gender and transgenderism. The speaker positions themselves as a strong opponent of the initiative, attempting to block it and accusing the initiator of bringing a "perverse matter" to the Riigikogu (Estonian Parliament).

The legislative focus is aimed at opposing the government’s budget and borrowing policies and raising the issue of how to finance the cost overrun (2.7 billion) of the Rail Baltic project. The speaker primarily acts as a critic and opponent of the government’s plans and forecasts (RES, tax hikes), demanding specific cuts or the abandonment of projects.

The speaker refers to a previous political achievement (the liberalization of the second pension pillar funds), but does not specifically present or endorse any ongoing legislative bill. The focus is on criticizing the government’s actions and demanding solutions for helping ordinary citizens.

The legislative focus is directed toward opposing the closure of the consulate general and demanding its reopening, should the speaker's faction ever come into a position of decision-making power. Procedural requirements for processing draft legislation are also being criticized, such as the unjustified requirement for 51 votes.

There is insufficient data regarding the legislative focus.

The legislative focus is aimed at opposing the government's tax increases and budget priorities. Specifically, criticism is leveled against the support measure for large corporations, whose terms are allegedly tailored specifically for a single recipient, and the disclosure of that recipient is being demanded.

The legislative focus is centered on demanding the amendment or repeal of Section 151¹ of the Penal Code, given that it infringes upon several constitutional rights. There is also a demand for the modification of the law concerning the confiscation of frozen assets, which is deemed unconstitutional, alongside criticism regarding the elimination of parliamentary obstruction. Emphasis is placed on the necessity for legal clarity, and the situation where the commentary on the rules of procedure holds more weight than the actual sections of the law is heavily criticized.

The legislative focus is on initiating a Riigikogu resolution, which is an appeal to the government aimed at solving the demographic crisis and restoring benefits. The speaker supports applying pressure on the government at the parliamentary level to force a policy change.

The speaker's priority is the transparency of the national defense inventory and criticism of the government's procurement policy, particularly regarding the purchase of ammunition and expensive missile systems. He/She supports developing the capabilities (coastal defense, air defense, internal defense reserve) initiated by the previous EKRE government, contrasting this with the current plans, which, in his/her estimation, fail to guarantee genuine defense capability.

The legislative focus is centered on criticizing the government's misuse of existing laws, particularly the Constitution and § 151¹ of the Penal Code. The speaker opposes the government's practice of restricting rights and demands accountability for these legal violations, specifically inquiring about the dismissal of police chiefs.

The legislative focus centers on opposing government-initiated draft legislation, particularly regarding the implementation of the transition law for Estonian-language education and amendments to the Income Tax Act affecting pensions. The speaker references prior work aimed at improving these drafts, but current efforts are predominantly critical and confrontational.
