Latvian Political Monitor

Since July 10, the compensation procedure for damages caused by military incidents has been in force, which was one of the 3 main priorities of the Ministry of Justice! ✅ This is not only a clear signal to the people of Latvia, but has also had several other positive effects!

@FOXXXIC @ltvzinas Here you have to ask @DaigaMierina, because this is a Saeima question, not the government's.

As I promised, changes will be made and the proposals of the Riga Heat investigation commission and the State Control will be put into use to reduce the heat tariff in Riga. Thank you @JanisVitenbergs and KEM VS @LigaKurevska for a very well-developed plan with clear deadlines and responsible parties to make the necessary changes in the short and long term.

⚖️ Not all family disputes need to be resolved in court. Mediation helps people choose dialogue instead of mutual conflict. This is especially important in family disputes, where parental conflict often becomes a burden on the child. At the same time, mediation helps reach a solution faster and relieves the courts, allowing judges to dedicate more time to cases where reaching an agreement is impossible. Today, with the Council of Certified Mediators, we discussed how to make mediation more accessible across Latvia, especially in the regions, so that people can use this opportunity already at the beginning of a conflict, rather than when relationships have fully escalated. 📌 Already now, the state provides 5 free mediation sessions for families whose disputes affect the interests of the child, and 7 sessions for poor and low-income families.

@AndrisTaurins @Oslejs Exactly my feeling... much better, patriotic people, I met many who have returned back after living in Riga, including the owner of Ausmaņa Kebabs with his family.

@io7246 Today there was a conceptual discussion in the Cabinet of Ministers about this. Whether there is readiness and support to address it. We will analyze co-ownership and other situations once we start formulating a more detailed proposal. But it must be addressed, because in my opinion it is everyone's right to control what happens to their property.

It rarely happens that I get to visit unfamiliar pubs, although I could and would like to more often. I received a 'Zdravstvuyte/Labdien' greeting from a waiter during the week at two buffets - 'Mills' in Skanste and 'DoorSea' on Antonijas Street. I replied: in 2012 we voted that bilingualism would not exist in Latvia, just so you know.

Based on the company's ability to show return on capital without tax surcharges in the free market. In short.. could also be longer.

@Vinny4474178642 Viestur, the judiciary is independent - therefore the sports games are organized entirely at the participants' own expense. Already for the 24th time.

The state will ensure that property seized in criminal proceedings does not lose value! 💶 Today the government supported amendments prepared by @Tiesletas that will allow in certain cases not only to store, but also to professionally manage property seized in criminal proceedings. In practice, this will mean that a seized car will be maintained in technical order, real estate will be managed, company value will be protected from squandering, and, for example, animals will be provided proper care. Transfer of property to management will not happen automatically. The process manager will decide in each case, assessing the specific circumstances. If the property can be safely left with its owner, user, or another trusted person, it can remain under that person's custody. These amendments will make criminal proceedings more efficient, reduce state expenses, and ensure a modern approach to managing seized property. ☑️

@viuksmp @wannax_j Valter, as I mentioned. This has to be viewed relatively. I'll give one example from a recent conversation with a friend who is interested in politics, might even get actively involved, an exporting entrepreneur. He could no longer run a company and would earn significantly less. That's how quite a few capable professionals fall away🙂↕️

@viuksmp @wannax_j I have no idea about her skills and what someone would be willing to pay. I know people in Rēzekne who earn significantly more than the sum you mentioned.

There was just a protest that was supported by Palestinian citizens. They're going to take away NGO money😅 Yes, it will be gone through whom to give and not to give. The councils should already slowly group up, reserve, and call Palestinians for a similar event, because this will be reduced pretty soon. No question! https://t.co/zRxOOa5O4M

@wannax_j As I mentioned before, I find these compensation arrangements inappropriate. It is not about poverty or wealth. It is the principle.

@wannax_j I tend to agree with you that all sorts of compensations should be removed. Deputy salaries, however, are not large. Of course, it should be viewed relatively. For me personally, the salary issue was a big consideration before I decided to run. Deputies should also be allowed to work in the professions from which they come.

@jtaurens Participate yourself in political organizations, movements, think tanks. Give your quality, knowledge and contribution. Sorry if I'm wrong and you already do that.
