By Plenary Sessions: Helmen Kütt

The primary legislative focus is supporting the amendments to the Child Protection and Social Welfare Acts (Bill 427 SE), which establishes a mandatory requirement for proactive assistance. The speaker also highlighted previous work concerning the increase of benefits (child benefits, benefits for children with disabilities) and the official establishment of special days (Children's Protection Day, Grandparents' Day).

The legislative focus is on ensuring social guarantees for family caregivers, with the aim of creating a separate bill modeled after the Finnish example. Support is given to the intention to develop amendments to the Child Protection Act and to the ongoing care reform. The speaker highlights their previous role as the chair of the Social Affairs Committee in initiating and adopting the bill to increase benefits for children with disabilities.

The legislative focus is on a draft bill concerning specialized care services. The bill's objective is to regulate waiting lists and organize access to these services more equitably. The speaker supports the legislation and wishes to clarify its practical implementation details (specifically, the length of the waiting lists).
