15th Estonian Parliament, 3rd session, plenary session.
The economic views expressed are strongly opposed to tax hikes, emphasizing that government levies and land tax directly hit people's pockets. Concern is raised regarding the competitiveness of the agricultural sector, as the increase in land tax drives up rental prices. It is suspected that the revenue collected from state fees is not directly used to cover the costs of the relevant procedures, but instead goes toward plugging holes in the state budget.
