The speaker demonstrates detailed expertise regarding the practical application of the education system, highlighting deficiencies in methodological materials used in kindergartens and grades 4–5, as well as the necessity of establishing separate study groups for students from diverse linguistic backgrounds. Furthermore, the speaker is knowledgeable about the process of amending the Language Act, the effect of immigration on the linguistic environment, and the need to reassess the standards of regional school networks (specifically vocational education in Ida-Viru County and Hiiumaa).

The speaker demonstrates competence in the field of environmental law and compensation mechanisms, showing awareness of the specific nuances concerning private protected forests and natural sacred sites. They represent a specific interest group (the support group for natural sacred sites) and request precise definitions regarding the draft legislation, such as the threshold for what constitutes a "major investment."
