By Plenary Sessions: Irja Lutsar

The main legislative priority is supporting Bill No. 604 (Legalization of the Patient's Advance Directive) and ensuring it reaches its first reading. The speaker supports the bill but emphasizes the need to amend its indefinite validity period so that it remains current with advances in medicine.

The legislative focus centers on two specific healthcare bills: amending the Tobacco Act (which involves transposing the EU directive and eliminating flavor exemptions for heated tobacco products) and amending the Hospital Exemption Act (which aims to remove restrictions to improve the accessibility of pharmaceuticals). The speaker is a proponent of these drafts and, acting as the representative of the lead committee, is responsible for overseeing the legislative process.

The priority is finding a solution to combat identity theft, which highlights the need for new or updated legislation in the area of digital security. The speaker is acting as the initiator of solutions by posing a question to the minister to trigger political action.

The focus is on identifying gaps in existing legislation or regulation concerning mobility support for people with disabilities. The objective is to find an equitable solution that requires political intervention or regulatory amendment.

The primary legislative priority is the amendment of the "hospital exemption" act to broaden the scope for using effective, unregistered medicines. Significant achievements include the removal of the patient limit and the incorporation of the requirement for ethical committee evaluation and informed consent into the legislation.
