Please check the Parliamentary Calendar to see when committees are scheduled to meet. Select committees are small groups of MPs or members of the House of Lords that are set up to investigate a specific issue in detail or to perform a specific scrutiny role. Two Riigikogu select committees are holding an extraordinary joint meeting on Monday to discuss a controversial agreement between Minister of Finance Martin Helme (EKRE) and U.S. law firm Freeh, Sporkin & Sullivan.The deal, whose details have not been made public was signed a month ago and announced at a press conference which featured senior partner Louis Freeh, a former FBI chief.Freeh, Sporkin & Sullivan are due to act on behalf of Estonia under the two-year, €3-million contract in respect of money laundering investigation.Criticism largely revolves around claims the firm previously represented a Russian businessman involved in money laundering who had chaneled millions of euros in potentially illicit funds via the now-defunct Tallinn branch of Danske Bank, scene of a major money laundering scandal last year, and the conflict of interest that would bring.The Riigikogu's state budget control select committee and anti-corruption select committee are holding the meeting, on an extraordinary basis given parliament is on its summer recess.Chair of the state budget control select committee Jürgen Ligi (Reform) said both bodies want Helme to show them a copy of the Freeh, Sporkin & Sullivan contract, and want to be filled in on its circumstances and goals. All select committees take evidence in public, with very few exceptions. The Committee may hold closed-door or public hearings and report its findings back to the House.
Chair of the parliamentary anti-corruption select committee Katri Raik (SDE) said transparency was an integral part of good policy making.
