By Plenary Sessions: Signe Riisalo

There is no direct opposition or criticism aimed at specific political opponents. Instead, the criticism is directed at the ministry's inability to present a clear future vision regarding vocational training for young people with special needs.

Opponents are directly criticized for presenting half-truths and failing to thoroughly examine the draft legislation. The criticism is aimed at political inaccuracy and procedural negligence, particularly regarding the claims that people with special needs will be placed in a worse position.

The speaker pushes back against criticism regarding the draft bill's alleged socialist nature, the increased burden on local municipalities, and insufficient consultation, dismissing these claims as half-truths. The primary critics include the Central Confederation of Trade Unions (focusing on funding issues), the Chamber of Commerce and Industry (concerned about rising costs), and political opponents who question the reform's motivating impact. The speaker rejects assertions that the number of beneficiaries will decrease or that the financing for the subsistence allowance is inadequate.
