15th Riigikogu, Fifth Session, Plenary Session
The speaker himself did not express opposition but rather relayed concerns raised by colleagues (e.g., Lutsar, Joller, Kingo, Grünthal) and the Office of the Chancellor of Justice regarding the specifics of the draft bill. The opposition primarily focused on the bill's potential impacts (parents of children under three, kindergarten availability) and procedural issues (the authority to decide on raising the pension age). The Ministry presented clear counter-arguments to all concerns, demonstrating that they were actively seeking compromises.
