15th Riigikogu, 3rd sitting, additional plenary session
The focus is on social welfare and vulnerable groups: It is emphasized that special care services, child rehabilitation, victim support services, and counseling services for perpetrators of violence have been cut, resulting in significantly extended and deeply concerning waiting lists. The main emphasis is on protecting and promoting social services and ensuring underlying well-being, with the aim of preventing the growth of social problems and the subsequent increase in social expenditure.

15th Estonian Parliament, 3rd session, plenary session.
Emphasizes social impacts and justice: conveying concern for vulnerable groups (people with disabilities, low-income families, pensioners) and stressing the fairness of the principle of the inviolability of the home and compensation for non-pecuniary damage. Criticism extends to the impact of rapid tax increases and fines, which could deepen social inequality and exacerbate livelihood problems. A strengthening approach for the protection of people and the increase of transparency is put forward.

15th Riigikogu, 3rd session, plenary sitting
Emphasis is placed on the protection of vulnerable groups: people with disabilities, large families, and families with children requiring special educational needs (SEN) must receive exemptions from the car tax and related levies, and placing additional burdens on these individuals is not supported. The criticism suggests that the proposed support measures might be theoretical rather than practically implementable, and may fail to address the actual needs of the families. A strong focus is placed on safeguarding constitutional rights and the system of social justice, as well as protecting cultural and social diversity (e.g., motorcycle and car collections).
