By Plenary Sessions: Helir-Valdor Seeder

The legislative focus is on the bill initiated by the Isamaa parliamentary group, which proposes that the Government of the Republic close the temporary control line between Estonia and the Russian Federation. The second focus is the issue of consolidating courts within the framework of the judicial reform. The speaker is the initiator and the one pressuring the government, emphasizing the necessity of political input from the parliament.

The legislative focus is currently centered on opposing a specific draft international agreement and demanding that its ratification process be halted. The speaker promises that should the draft be adopted, they will work in the future to terminate the agreement at the earliest possible opportunity. They are clearly opposed to the draft and vow to initiate its termination down the line.

The legislative focus is directed toward the correct interpretation and implementation of the existing Riigikogu Rules of Procedure and Internal Rules Act. The speaker emphasizes that if established practices are constantly challenged, the regulation of supplementary questions should be clearly codified in the Rules of Procedure and Internal Rules in the future. He primarily acts as a defender of the existing, flexible practices.

The legislative focus is currently directed towards bills concerning administrative organization, where the speaker is acting as an opponent, seeking to defend the Isamaa amendment against centralization. The priority is ensuring that the proposed legislative changes are substantively justified and do not diminish the authority of local governments. The speaker is demanding a vote on the amendment.
