The primary legislative priority is modernizing financial market regulation to improve the requirements for netting derivative and repo transactions and to increase flexibility in the valuation of real estate used as collateral for housing loans. The LCR is acting as the sponsor and handler of the draft bill, focusing on completing the first reading and setting the deadline for amendments.

The legislative focus is currently centered on rejecting Draft Bill 594 (which proposes lowering fuel excise duty and VAT), with the individual speaking in their capacity as the representative of the leading committee. They stress that the bill runs contrary to both the principles of fiscal responsibility and international law. The speaker's main goal is to ensure that this draft bill does not advance to a second reading.

The legislative focus is on the oversight and accountability of government activities, particularly concerning economic indicators and the investment environment. The priority is monitoring the achievement of the national productivity target and obtaining the relevant data from the Ministry of Finance.
