The Riigikogu appointed Ülle Madis as Chancellor of Justice on January 20, 2015, and he took office by taking an oath before the Riigikogu on March 31, 2015. Thus, his mandate will expire on March 30, 2022. The President of the Republic proposes to appoint Ülle Madis as Chancellor of Justice for a new term.
