The Riigikogu Cultural Committee discusses the ERR council. They want the council to have more members. The draft will be adopted on June 17.
The committee discusses five proposals. One proposal is to have one more expert on the council. Not everyone supports this proposal. For example, Vadim Belobrovtsev and Tõnis Lukas do not support it. Helle-Moonika Helme is not present.
The proposal is supported by Liina Kersna, Signe Kivi, Margit Sutrop, Kadri Tali, and Madis Kallas.
The committee also discusses other proposals. For example, that experts should be selected through a competition. An expert must not be a member of a party's governing body. All these proposals receive support.
The committee wants the draft to be adopted on June 17.
The opposition believes that the coalition wants to select council members with people who suit them.
