By Plenary Sessions: Reili Rand

The speaker emphasizes a strong regional focus, referencing the specific context of their "home island." The median salary figure for Hiiumaa (1,373 euros) is used as an example to illustrate how national economic policy impacts local livelihoods.

The focus is heavily placed on international obligations (UN, CEDAW, the European Union) and at the national level (Estonian laws, the Riigikogu, and companies in which the state and local municipalities hold a stake). Estonia's situation is compared to the EU average indicators, and Latvia is mentioned as the only other EU country that has not joined the protocol.

The focus is clearly on national issues, addressing immigration policy, the economic environment, and the Political Parties Act. Regional or local questions are not touched upon.
