By Plenary Sessions: Kadri Tali

The opposition is aimed at the initiators of the draft bill (the Centre Party) and the stance of the Government of the Republic, which withheld support for the bill due to differing interpretations of the budget strategy and the intended purpose of the support. The commission proposed rejecting the draft bill by a vote of 4 in favour and 2 against.

The confrontation is aimed at the position of the Government of the Republic not to support the bill, as it restricts the rights of local authorities. Evelin Poolamets indirectly criticized the coalition's actions, linking the necessity of the bill to the application of the sum saved from cutting child benefits toward improving the availability of services.
