By Plenary Sessions: Riina Sikkut

Supports the reduction of bureaucracy and cost savings, questioning the necessity of the ministerial position. It is critical of the government's economic strategy, which focuses on creating low-productivity jobs instead of alleviating labor shortages. Emphasis is placed on the need to address the shortage of skilled workers and move toward the goal of becoming a country with productivity higher than the European Union average.

The speaker advocates for strong fiscal discipline, insisting on compliance with domestic budget rules and emphasizing the necessity of the agreed-upon tax hikes. A warning is issued regarding the potential doubling of the debt burden and the resulting consequences (rising prices, more expensive borrowing). Support is voiced for increasing competition in the banking market by making it easier to transfer housing loans, and for adhering to the principle of responsible lending.

The necessity of continuous investment in IT security and data utilization is emphasized, particularly during budget negotiations. The speaker warns against achieving cost savings at the expense of IT investments, as this could materialize security risks. This points to support for strategic investments rather than strict fiscal discipline.

The individual/party favors targeted tax relief (specifically, shifting the tax bracket threshold) and responsible fiscal policy, while criticizing the increase in the national debt burden. They oppose eliminating the tax hump entirely, arguing that it provides a disproportionate benefit to the wealthiest individuals (those earning 4,000–6,000 euros per month). Furthermore, they support working families and low-income earners, but criticize the ineffectiveness of lowering the VAT on food products.

Economic views concern the distribution and management of state resources among government agencies. It is emphasized that sufficient resources must be available to ensure high-quality and transparent work, noting that decisions regarding these resources are made in the Riigikogu chamber.

Economic views focus on national strategic development (defense industry park) and public sector labor issues. Targeted financial measures are supported, such as salary coefficients, to alleviate regional inequality and the shortage of specific teachers (mathematics, natural sciences).

Supports robust regulation in the financial market, particularly concerning non-bank credit, to ensure consumer protection and market stability. It views the operation of banking, the stock exchange, and non-life insurance as satisfactory, but identifies a need to intervene to mitigate risks within the credit market. The objective is to shield consumers from excessive debt burdens stemming from their misunderstanding of the true cost of credit.

Critical of the approach that seeks to achieve the "lowest cost" or "Excel optimality" in crisis measures, emphasizing that preparedness requires investment. It also notes the government's previous plans regarding the car tax and income tax hikes, criticizing the inconsistency of their positions.

Economic perspectives emphasize strict fiscal discipline and the responsible use of public funds. The speaker opposes erroneous advance payments totaling tens of millions, demanding systematic control and accountability in the management of state budgetary resources.

Economic perspectives emphasize boosting productivity and ensuring a decent income, opposing the promotion of low-wage immigration that fails to increase productivity. They support the retraining of the unemployed and the implementation of sector-specific wage criteria. They are strongly skeptical regarding the establishment of nuclear energy, arguing that it would require substantial public resources and result in expensive energy.

Economic views focus on social justice and the long-term sustainability of the state. Criticism is directed at regressive consumption taxes and the low proportion of capital taxes, both of which exacerbate inequality. Compensatory measures are demanded for low-wage earners (such as raising the subsistence level), and concern is expressed regarding Estonia's lagging productivity and the growth of the national debt.
