Summary

The bill provides for approving the agreement to amend the accession agreement in order to extend the transitional period of Estonia's ESA membership and enable ESA to allocate a larger amount to projects aimed at Estonia. Estonia received the status of a full member of the European Space Agency (ESA) on September 1, 2015. According to the agreement between the Government of the Republic of Estonia and the European Space Agency regarding Estonia's accession to the Convention establishing the European Space Agency as a new member of the ESA, six years of new member state status and participation in the "Industrial Initiative" measure aimed at Estonia only, amounting to 500,000 euros per year, are foreseen for Estonia. In 2018, the ESA concluded that the status of a new member state should last nine years instead of six, and the minimum size of the targeted allocation should be 750,000 euros per year, according to the ESA. The size of the mentioned allowance is determined by the new member state of the ESA in the measure may not affect the Estonian ESA membership fee or bring additional obligations. Estonia will get better conditions for the next six years than originally agreed.
