By Plenary Sessions: Maris Lauri

The opposition is extremely fierce and is directed against Isamaa, the Social Democrats (SDE), and the Centre Party, who are being criticized for supporting the progressive income tax. The criticism is both political (referencing the "tax hump") and character-based (calling the Centre Party "hypocritical"). Speaker C emphasizes the ideological confrontation, arguing that their positions are expected and consistent with their respective worldviews.

The conflict centers on the government’s position, which did not support the draft bill, citing the sufficiency of the current legal framework for reviewing the economic substance. The lead committee strongly backed this opposition, proposing the rejection of the bill (5 in favor, 1 against).

The opposition is directed at the proponents of the draft legislation who seek to repeal the security tax and the increase in corporate income tax. The criticism is policy-driven and intense, as the governing coalition, acting through the Ministry of Finance, does not support the bill because it would create a gap in the budget without replacement revenue.
