Decision of the Riigikogu "Making a proposal to the Government of the Republic to liquidate the Russian versions of the websites of ministries and other government institutions"

Summary

The bill obliges the government to eliminate the Russian versions of the websites of ministries and other government agencies. In Estonia, the Government of the Republic, all eleven ministries and more than half of other government institutions have Russian versions of their websites. The explanatory letter states that not knowing the national language also means being away from the public information space of Estonia. Therefore, the non-native population will not change either political attitudes. Therefore, to improve the knowledge of the national language, more effective measures than before must be taken: Estonian public space must be changed to Estonian. Without it, the knowledge of the national language will not improve and Estonian society will not become Estonian-speaking.

Machine translation from Estonian. The official text remains authoritative.
