15th Riigikogu, 6th sitting, plenary sitting.
The style is predominantly formal and procedural, as the speaker acts as a representative of the commission, avoiding the expression of personal viewpoints. However, the tone becomes defensive and sharp in response to colleagues’ accusations ("you’re talking rubbish"), emphasizing that disagreements are a natural part of the legislative process. The arguments are primarily logical and fact-based, relying on commission decisions and legal interpretations.

15th Riigikogu, 6th plenary sitting
The style is formal and analytical, while simultaneously employing colorful historical descriptions ("a colorful start," "stupid mistakes were made, wrongdoings were committed"). The tone is concerned regarding systemic risks and financial fraud, but ultimately optimistic about the system's improvement. Logical appeals and parallels are utilized (doctor, circulatory system), and the head of the Financial Supervision Authority is addressed respectfully.
