2024-12-09
15th Riigikogu, 4th sitting, plenary sitting
Political Position
The primary emphasis is placed on initiating the analysis of social media use among youth and children and the consideration of potential restrictions. The support is aimed at launching this analysis, but specific restrictions are not being put forward as immediate steps. This approach is policy-driven and centered on analysis and regulation, rather than the approval of an immediately implementable restriction.
