Summary

The draft proposes amendments to update the legal framework in the language field in order to strengthen the status of the Estonian language as the state language and the position and visibility of the Estonian language in services. The purpose of the changes is to ensure that Estonian is the main language of information and communication in society. The most important changes concern the establishment of language requirements for persons performing platform work. The content of the amendment to the Public Transport Act is the level required for a taxi driver stipulating the requirement to know the national language as a prerequisite for obtaining a service card.
