15th Riigikogu, 3rd sitting, plenary session
The primary criticism targets the government’s handling of research funding distribution and the slow pace of processing the draft law concerning the organization of R&D. This criticism is policy-driven, stressing that the current funding model (40:40:20) is detrimental to national research institutions and universities, as it channels funds into projects with potentially weaker quality control. Furthermore, the practice of financing service contracts at the expense of core research funding is also under fire.
