15th Riigikogu, 3rd sitting, plenary session
The main objective is to improve the quality of legislation: this involves the mandatory preparation of a legislative intent (or concept note), the requirement for an impact assessment, and the carrying out of a constitutional compliance review prior to final approval. If these preconditions are not met, the adoption of the draft bill by the government or the Riigikogu (Parliament) will not be supported. Furthermore, emphasis is placed on the need to avoid the use of confusing omnibus bills and to ensure that every law has a long-term positive effect.
