By Plenary Sessions: Anastassia Kovalenko-Kõlvart

An illustration of the nuances of energy policy: the 2.6 billion euro subsidy for offshore wind farms and the lack of public disclosure regarding its calculations; issues related to introducing the topic for discussion and adhering to the development plan; the role of Eesti Energia and its impact on the state budget, including the context of the special anti-corruption committee; and the overall economic impact of the green transition and energy supply security. The text also references the complexity of the budget and pricing at the consumer level.

Demonstrates knowledge of airport financing, earmarked funding, and the role of dividends within state-owned enterprises (SOEs). It draws a comparison between the airport charges in Riga and Vilnius and analyzes their effect on consumer pricing. Furthermore, it addresses the owners' expectations concerning the green transition and compliance with CO2 standards, providing specific examples (€5.6 million in dividends for 2025, €7.2 million for 2026). This constitutes a demonstrative technical and economic discussion on the governance of state-owned companies.

Demonstrates a strong grasp of rights and constitutional law: it refers to limitations on fundamental rights, foundational principles, and the concept of *ultima ratio*, and stresses the necessity of conducting impact assessments. The text employs legal terminology and references principles derived from constitutionality, thereby demonstrating the reliable competence expected of a legal professional in the discourse.

This stems from a specific reference to Section 14, Subsection 2 of the Churches and Congregations Act, which establishes the criteria for intervention if the organization harms public order, health, morality, or human rights and freedoms. It is noted that corresponding legal provisions exist, and that the Russian Orthodox Church's infringement is not deemed a violation of the law, which indicates an understanding of the legal framework. Expert knowledge focuses on the current interpretation of the Estonian legal system and the boundaries of the law.

Demonstrates knowledge of energy policy, the state aid decision-making process, and evaluation mechanisms. It refers to the National Audit Office, representatives of Transparency International Estonia (Korruptsioonivaba Eesti), and Allar Jõks as experts, and claims that the decision-making process has not been sufficiently transparent and that the figures require a comprehensive analysis that evaluates the overall picture.

Demonstrates knowledge of taxation and tax policy (advance corporate income tax for banks, relatively 18% compared to 24% for personal taxes) and utilizes economic comparisons. References competition between economic sectors (comparison of banks and offshore wind farms) and the interpretation of economic policy based on fixed meanings. The main topics are taxation and national economic policy, viewed through the criticism of government policy.

The speaker substantiates their points using economic data, specifically referring to data from the Institute of Economic Research, approximate trends in consumer lending, and conclusions presented by Swedbank regarding the distribution of savings. They note that 70% of people have no savings and highlight the complex distribution structure of savings growth (the wealthy hold the majority share). This data-driven approach demonstrates competence in both economic theoretical discussion and the application of statistics.

The text points to tax policy and its economic effects, citing figures like the VAT increase to 24%, the rise in income tax, and the proposed car tax. It references data from the Estonian Institute of Economic Research and comments by Peeter Raudsepp to demonstrate the worsening state of affairs.
