By Plenary Sessions: Riina Sikkut

The legislative focus is aimed at reducing bureaucracy and addressing security laws related to technological surveillance. The speaker acts more as a critical questioner, seeking clarification on the content and optimal scope of the draft legislation, particularly concerning the boundaries of privacy and individual freedoms.

Legislative focus is directed towards amending financial regulations, including making it easier to transfer residential mortgages between banks and updating the regulatory framework for credit unions. The speaker supports these amendments, noting that cross-party consensus on them has been achieved within the Finance Committee.

The main focus is on amending the bill concerning the rights of the Financial Intelligence Unit to ensure constitutional conformity and public trust. The broader goal is to establish a legal basis for the use of data with new technologies across all sectors and to ensure sufficient internal and parliamentary oversight.

The primary legislative focus is opposing the government's proposed tax plans (the cancellation of the income tax increase and the abolition of the tax hump). The Social Democrats' alternative proposal—shifting the tax curve—is being promoted as a more effective way to lower the tax burden for the intended beneficiaries. Reference is made to the discussions held by the Finance Committee.

The legislative focus is on the quality and clarity of the law-making process. The speaker emphasizes that the work of the Riigikogu (laws and amendments) often requires correction and creates confusion, which in turn burdens the Chancellor of Justice.

The legislative focus is directed towards education reform, specifically the consideration of alternative funding models and salary coefficients. A further priority is the analysis and implementation of measures aimed at reducing educational inequality (e.g., learning support and full-day schooling). Additionally, there is a requirement to ensure the immediate execution of strategic national projects, such as the defense industry park.

The key legislative priorities include the Credit Union Act, the Credit Information Sharing Act (the positive credit register), and changes to the requirements for valuing residential real estate used as collateral. The speaker is an active proponent and architect of these amendments within the Finance Committee, stressing that they are currently in the legislative process.

The focus is on the legislative procedure and the validity of government positions, requiring that a new position be sought whenever government policy changes. It supports the statutory requirement for establishing shelters in new apartment buildings.

The legislative focus is directed towards administrative reform and strengthening internal control mechanisms to prevent recurring financial errors. The priority is the prevention of systemic errors, which necessitates changes either in accountability or in the system itself, suggesting a potential need to legally mandate stricter control principles.

The legislative focus is currently on reforming immigration and labor regulations. The aim is to support educational migration and improve integration, ultimately securing long-term contributing, Estonian-speaking employees. Furthermore, it highlights the necessity of introducing amendments to the legal framework concerning assisted suicide, specifically regulating the sale of related means outside the scope of healthcare provision.

The legislative focus is aimed at improving the fairness of the tax structure and implementing compensatory measures (such as raising the subsistence minimum). Tightening restrictions on the advertising of gambling and remote wagering is also a priority for mitigating social risks. The primary tool used is interpellation to scrutinize the government's actions and to lay the groundwork for amendments during the budget deliberation process.
