By Plenary Sessions: Heljo Pikhof

The legislative focus is on implementing amendments to the Cultural Endowment Act and the Gambling Tax Act, which replaced the creative work allowance with creative work remuneration, thereby ensuring social protection. A further priority is the completion of construction and renovation projects for nationally important cultural buildings (including the new TV house and SÜKU). Government approval is also awaited for the rolling health insurance scheme.

The legislative focus is currently on the draft resolution (Draft 231), which involves proposing to the Government of the Republic the organization of education for Ukrainian children, specifically aiming to allow them to continue their studies under Ukrainian curricula. Significant attention is being paid to the procedural aspects, including the volume of amendments and the requirement to secure a majority vote of the Riigikogu membership (51 votes in favor) for the resolution to be adopted.
