The legislative focus is currently directed at analyzing the goals and economic impact of a specific draft bill concerning urban planning and proximity (the "15-minute city" concept). There is also intense scrutiny regarding the reliability and continuation of e-voting, with proponents arguing for either reform or outright abolition.

The speaker's focus is on scrutinizing the actions of the government and officials and ensuring transparency, particularly regarding the financing of major infrastructure projects. He/She is utilizing the Riigikogu's information session to expose the alleged lack of integrity among officials and pressure the government into disclosing the funding plans.

The legislative focus is directed toward ensuring the effectiveness of existing discussions and translating them into concrete actions. The priority is the finalization of processes and the adoption of decisions in the field of state governance, rather than the substance of specific draft legislation.

The focus is on legislative oversight and monitoring the activities of the executive branch (the Prosecutor's Office) through parliamentary inquiries. The objective is to ensure the fair and up-to-date application of existing procedures, rather than initiating new legislation.

The legislative focus is currently on draft legislation related to government accountability and security vetting. The speaker is taking on the role of a critical interrogator, seeking to determine whether existing exemptions (such as "clearance forever") and legal loopholes are adequately addressed. The objective is to ensure that background checks for senior officials remain compliant and thorough, even when they transition between different posts.

The main legislative focus is on opposing the car tax bill introduced by the government, which we view as harmful and ideologically flawed. Also under focus is the handling of the interpellation submitted to the Minister of Climate, as well as the procedural correctness of compiling the Riigikogu agenda.

The primary legislative focus is on the plan to ensure dispatchable energy generation capacities, requiring the acceleration of nuclear energy development and the continued use of oil shale during the transition period. Attention is also focused on the transparency of financing critical infrastructure connections (such as the fourth Estonia-Latvia connection), especially concerning the use of congestion revenue. He emphasizes the need to remove bureaucratic obstacles standing in the way of industrial investments.

The focus is on the implementation of legislation and financial guarantees, particularly securing the legal scheme for the utilization obligation within the renewable energy sector. It addresses the impact of ratifying international agreements (taxation) on the state budget and enterprises, and raises questions about the justification for the short time horizon (2030) concerning the integrity of the tax system.

The focus is on the strategic direction and goal-setting of the government's energy policy, requiring the prime minister to provide a clear vision for the future price of electricity. Specific bills or legislative priorities are not mentioned; the emphasis remains on guiding the policy direction.

The speaker is a strong opponent of the draft legislation, which transposes principles derived from an EU directive aimed at promoting renewable energy. Speaking on behalf of the EKRE parliamentary group, he proposes rejecting the bill during the first reading, viewing it as a step in the wrong direction.

The main legislative focus is the bank tax bill introduced by EKRE in May, which aimed to tax banks' extraordinary profits. The speaker is a strong proponent of this initiative and opposes the government's planned tax hikes, including the elimination of the land tax exemption and the proposed car tax. Questions are also being raised regarding the plans for a progressive income tax.
