The legislative focus is on implementing the social objectives of the long-term development strategy "Estonia 2035." Priorities include the accessibility of services, ensuring a dignified life, and improving the care system, thereby supporting the goals set by the Minister of Social Affairs.

The legislative focus is directly related to the draft state budget law for 2026 (737 SE) during its first reading. The speaker will concentrate on the economic parameters underpinning the budget, specifically assessing the tax burden and the risks associated with future tax revenues.

The main legislative priority is the immediate finalization of the draft Act amending the Police and Border Guard Act (670 SE). The speaker is a strong supporter of this specific bill, which regulates the use of cameras and license plate recognition for law enforcement purposes.

The legislative focus is on creating a long-term productivity strategy and initiating education reform. The priority is establishing mechanisms to incentivize R&D investments, strengthening the connection between science and business, and developing technology transfer centers. The state must act as the driver through the development of e-governance and the rapid deployment of artificial intelligence.

The legislative priority is supporting the draft law (583 SE) on accession to the Optional Protocol to the UN Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women at the second reading. The objective is to provide Estonian women with an international protection mechanism and to approve the amendment to Article 20, paragraph 1 of the Convention.
