Summary

The bill provides for the position of scientific adviser under each minister and in the State Chancellery. The explanatory letter states that scientific advisors have already been employed in most ministries and the State Chancellery, which clearly confirms that this is an Estonian success story. However, these positions have not yet been legislated or regulated. The purpose of the bill is to ensure by law the continuity of these positions, the competence of the research advisor in research or development work and harmonize the relevant requirements, as well as ensure that scientific advisors are selected through a public competition by a competent and non-political foundation (Estonian Science Agency) through a committee formed for this purpose, i.e. the scientific community, not political forces.
