By Plenary Sessions: Eero Merilind

The main opponents are Riina Solman and the EKRE faction, whose amendments were rejected by the leading committee. Criticism was directed at their claims regarding the possibility of legalizing pedophilia, assertions which the speaker repeatedly and forcefully refuted. Also rejected were proposals that would have created an unjustified administrative burden (e.g., the obligation to request an assessment from the prosecutor’s office).
