By Plenary Sessions: Aivar Sõerd

Legislative focus remains centered on the handling of Bill 535 (the temporary solidarity tax for the Estonian banking sector) and the expression of opposition to it. The Speaker is serving as the rapporteur for the lead committee, concentrating on highlighting the technical and substantive deficiencies of the draft legislation, particularly concerning its overlap with the current advance income tax system. It is emphasized that the bill requires a majority vote of the full Riigikogu membership for its adoption.
