By Plenary Sessions: Raimond Kaljulaid

There is little data available regarding cooperation models, but one speaker steps up to defend the actions of the former Social Democrat Minister of the Interior (Lauri Läänemets) in raising the salaries of rescuers and initiating population protection. This indicates political solidarity in defending Social Democratic policy concerning the previous government period.

The speaker emphasized cooperation, thanking the bill's drafters and colleagues on the National Defense Committee for supporting their proposed amendment. Cooperation with representatives of the Rescue Board was also highlighted.

The cooperative approach is evident in past references, highlighting successful collaboration with the Reform Party within the Tallinn city government, particularly in expediting planning processes. However, in the current context, there is no mention of compromise; instead, oppositional criticism aimed at the government is dominant.

The speaker openly acknowledges the existence of internal disagreement within the faction, noting that not everyone must always be of one mind. He/She respectfully addresses the rapporteur, seeking clarification and data regarding the economic impact of the initiative.

The speaker generally notes good cooperation with Hanno Pevkur on the National Defence Committee, but stresses that the shortcomings in oversight originated with the committee itself. He advocates for cross-party cooperation, proposing the establishment of a broad-based investigative commission to audit the use of defense sector funds.

The speaker uses respectful and polite language when addressing the minister ("Esteemed Mr. Minister," "Thank you for the very good answers"). There is no evidence of seeking cooperation or openness to compromise with colleagues or other political parties.

The speaker collaborates with his faction colleagues (Tiit Maran on drafting the bill) and emphasizes the necessity of cross-party cooperation, particularly in rebuilding confidence in the national defense sector (proposal for an investigative committee). He supports reasonable compromises on procedural matters (Lauri Laats' proposal).
