Gender Equality Act Amendment Act

Summary

The bill amends the Gender Equality Act. According to the amendment, the part of the text "if possible" is omitted from the law in order to ensure that the representation of both sexes in state and local government representative assemblies is clearly and unequivocally mandatory in the future. The explanatory note states that the amendment makes the requirement clearer and more binding and cannot be interpreted as voluntary or conditional. The aim is to emphasize that the mentioned obligation must be fulfilled consistently and systematically, not just when it's convenient or easy.

Machine translation from Estonian. The official text remains authoritative.
