Health minister Tanel Kiik (Center) says that the government was already aware of concerns expressed by a Supreme Court judge on Thursday, over the far-reaching nature of the government orders which put Covid restrictions in place.
A Supreme Court order from Thursday suggests Estonian courts have been too quick to dismiss vaccination requirement complaints. The top court finds that challenges of the Estonian Defense Forces (EDF) vaccination obligation need to be processed.
General government orders aimed at establishing restrictions during the coronavirus pandemic should be more limited in scope, according to one Supreme Court judge, while legal precedent should shed more light on this, he said.
The Supreme Court of Estonia will not proceed with an appeal by the nonprofit MTÜ Loodusvõlu seeking to block the construction of a shale oil plant by the state-owned power generating group Eesti Energia in Ida-Viru County.
