Central government budget for 2026HE 99/2025 vpArvoisa puhemies! Orpon hallituksen lähtökohta on se, että talouden kantokykyä vahvistetaan sitä kautta, että mahdollisimman moni voisi osallistua ja osallistuisi työmarkkinoille.

Supervision of the EU deforestation regulationHE 77/2025 vpArvoisa puhemies! Muutama sana tästä metsäkatoasetuksesta. Todellakin on niin, että tavoitteet tämän asetuksen takana ovat hyvät ja kannatettavat. Tavoitteena on siis maailmanlaajuisesti, globaalisti vähentää metsäkatoa ja ehkäistä ilmastonmuutosta ja myös luonnon monimuotoisuuden köyhtymistä, ja nämä ovat…

Safeguarding essential functions during strikesHE 14/2025 vpArvoisa puhemies! Tässä suojelutyötä koskevassa lainsäädännössä on kysymys ennen kaikkea ennakoinnista, siis siitä, että varaudutaan hyvissä ajoin ennakolta mahdollisiin poikkeuksellisiin, vaikeisiin tilanteisiin. Tämä on siis kaikki toimialat kattava yleinen lainsäädäntö, jollaista on kaivattu ja joka on varsin…

Shortening change negotiations and raising thresholdHE 198/2024 vpArvoisa puhemies! Lienee perusteltua palauttaa mieliin, mistä tässä esityksessä todellisuudessa oikein on kysymys. Tässä todellakin on yksi tämän hallituksen keskeinen uudistus, joka on osa kokonaisuutta, jolla halutaan uudistaa työelämän lainsäädäntöä. Ja miksi sitä halutaan uudistaa? Siksi, että saisimme purettua…

Economic considerations in labour dispute mediationHE 146/2024 vpArvoisa puhemies! Kiitos kovasti keskustelusta. — Tähän loppuun ajattelin vielä todeta sen, että jos ja kun halutaan, että julkisella sektorilla palkat nousevat, niin se edellyttää vahvempaa taloutta sinne julkiselle puolelle. Tässä me olemme yhteisellä asialla monin eri toimin, jotta siellä julkisella puolella olisi…

Economic considerations in labour dispute mediationHE 146/2024 vpNiin, puheenjohtaja, varmuudeksi vain totean, että työelämä- ja tasa-arvovaliokunta yhtyi tähän perustuslakivaliokunnan näkemykseen juuri näin, että se lain kirjain on tietenkin se, mitä ensisijaisesti luetaan ja tulkitaan, ja perustelut sitten täydentävät sitä.

Economic considerations in labour dispute mediationHE 146/2024 vpArvoisa puhemies! Kyllä nämä näkökulmat on otettu huomioon, ja perustuslakivaliokunnan lausunto on varmaan paras paikka tarkistaa, mikä se lopputulema on, kun näitä on huomioitu. Perustuslakivaliokunnan lopputulema on se, että näin voidaan edetä, eikä ristiriitaa esimerkiksi näihin mainittuihin sopimuksiin ole.…

Tämä on yhteinen huoli, ja myös yhtenä ratkaisuna on jo pidempään esitetty terapiatakuuta Suomeen. Terapiatakuu on ollut…

Sosiaalidemokraattien puheenvuoroissa on puhuttu näistä riskeistä ja suurimpana riskinä mainittu nimenomaan tähän…
