By Plenary Sessions: Rene Kokk

Economic perspectives focus on the requirement for transparency in the financing and planning of the energy sector. The speaker expresses strong suspicion that the government's energy policy is linked to hidden business interests, pointing to potential shell companies and shelf corporations that have provided input regarding the future of wind energy.

Economic perspectives focus on protecting rural businesses (agriculture, beekeeping) from the economic damage caused by large predators. Support is given to regulation that allows entrepreneurs to protect their property, although the draft bill itself does not address compensation for damages. The goal is to ensure that it is possible to engage in business confidently in Estonia.

Economic perspectives oppose new tax burdens and support uniformity and transparency in the tax system. State subsidies aimed at buyers of used electric vehicles are criticized, based on the argument that these buyers tend to be wealthy individuals, which constitutes an unfair approach.

Insufficient data.

Economic outlooks are cautious and fiscally conservative, emphasizing the high value of state assets (databases) and criticizing unrealistic energy price promises. There is skepticism regarding the government’s energy policy and its ability to create a favorable business environment that would attract investment to Estonia.
