The Riigikogu Anti-Corruption Special Committee’s weekly agenda was rejected by its members on Tuesday, preventing a planned discussion regarding potential political interference in economic research. The special committee, comprised of Stig Rästa (Estonian 200), Mario Kadastik (RE), Anastassia Kovalenko-Kõlvart (KE), Priit Sibul (Isamaa) and Eerik-Niiles Kross (RE), voted against the committee’s proposed work plan during a session focused on prioritizing the week’s agenda. A key element of the proposed plan was to examine the statistical agency’s processes and explore concerns about potential influence from political figures. The committee sought to investigate risks associated with the direction of economic statistics and analysis. However, the members ultimately decided against dedicating time to this topic during the session. The decision to cancel the public session highlights ongoing challenges for the committee in its efforts to address corruption concerns. The rejection of the work plan effectively stalled the committee’s ability to scrutinize potential vulnerabilities within the statistical system. Moving forward, the committee will need to pursue alternative strategies to address its investigative goals.
