General objective Following the latest amendment of the Estonian RRP, the reforms and investments implemented by the Estonia continue to be affected by the rapid pace of technological change, including the widespread adoption of new tools such as artificial intelligence, which has rendered parts of the training content outdated. Furthermore, the needs and expectations of participants have evolved significantly, with a stronger preference for more flexible, tailored, and practical learning formats. As a result, participation interest in the existing training programmes has declined, limiting their intended impact and necessitating minor revisions. 2. Justification for the addendum Article [21]: an amendment or submission of a new plan due to the plan, including relevant milestones and targets, being no longer achievable because of objective circumstances. PART 2: DESCRIPTION OF ADDITIONAL AND MODIFIED REFORMS AND INVESTMENTS Name of the modified component Investment/ reform CID Reform 1.4 reference Investment/ reform name Skills reform for the digital transformation of businesses Type of change compared to modified CID Legal base of the change ☐ Article 14(2) – loan request (select at least one) ☐ Article 18(2) – update of the maximum financial contribution ☒ Article 21 – amendment due to objective circumstances ☐ [Article 21a – REPowerEU resources] ☐ [Article 21b – new transfers] ☐ None of the above, correction of clerical error Elements modified (only for ☐ Component / Measure description modified measures) ☒Milestones and targets ☐ Estimated cost ☐ Green and digital tagging ☐ DNSH self-assessment EN 2 EN  Description and justification of the change Within the RRF reform - Skills reform for the digital transformation of businesses measure, it has become evident that the participation in training activities target is currently not achievable. Compared to the period when the measure was originally designed, significant changes have occurred in both the economic environment and the ICT sector. The economic backdrop of 2023–2024 has been exceptionally challenging, leading companies to prioritise short-term operational continuity over staff development. Many firms, particularly in manufacturing and industry, responded by cutting jobs or freezing hiring; for example, manufacturing employment declined by approximately 6% from its 2022 peak by early 2024. Under these conditions, SMEs and larger employers alike have limited capacity to release employees for lengthy training programmes, even when the training itself is provided free of charge. Lowering the participation target therefore reflects a temporary but material absorption constraint and aligns expectations with what companies can realistically support under current economic stress. At the same time, developments in the ICT sector have diverged from earlier forecasts. According to OSKA ICT sector monitoring, the previously projected growth in demand for ICT specialists has not materialised to the expected extent, and demand has instead stabilised. This has reduced both individual and employer-driven interest in further training and large-scale retraining programmes. In practice, participation rates in the training programmes have remained below the procured training volume, pointing to saturation in the training market. Similar training opportunities targeting the same audience are currently offered in Estonia through multiple funding sources and measures (ESF/ERDF, Recovery and Resilience Facility, and Just Transition Fund measures), which further limits effective uptake. The rapid emergence and diffusion of AI has also influenced employer behaviour. While this has been flexibly considered during project implementation, many companies have begun adopting AI solutions based on their own company-specific needs. As a result, employers increasingly prefer their employees to participate in internal company-specific AI training and development activities tailored to their specific business context over external, standardised training programmes. Finally, completion rates in ICT training have been highly variable, with dropout rates ranging from 3% to 37%. The reasons for discontinuation vary: the ICT field is demanding, and participants have often underestimated the level of commitment required for long-term retraining programmes. These trainings were intentionally designed to include intensive and in-depth learning pathways, reflecting the programme’s focus on meaningful and sustainable skill transitions into specialist roles rather than maximising completion figures alone. Maintaining a clear quality threshold with regard to training scope, duration and completion therefore remains essential, and a reduced participation target supports this objective. Due to the reasons outlined above, we propose as a solution to reduce the target goal from 2000 to 1818.

Taastekava koostati esmakordselt 2021.a. sügisel, kui lepiti Euroopa Komisjoniga kokku reformid ja investeeringud koos siduvate eesmärkide ja ajakavaga RRF toetuse kasutamiseks. 2023.a. alguses tehti seoses rahastu mahu vähendamise ja REPowerEU toetuse lisandumisega kavale muudatuste lisa, mis kiideti Euroopa Liidu Nõukogu poolt heaks mais 2023.a. 2025.a. sügisel ning 2026.a. algul muudeti Taastekava seoses muutunud olude – sõja, inflatsiooni ja majanduslanguse – mõjuga ning Euroopa Komisjoni 2025. a juunis antud lihtsustamisjuhiste rakendamiseks. Kuna Taastekava elluviimise ja tulemuste Euroopa Komisjonile raporteerimise lõpptähtaeg on august 2026.a., siis on tarvilik Taastekava veelkord täiendavalt korrigeerida, et kõik kavas sisalduvad siduvad kokkulepped ja tulemused oleks võimalik tähtaegselt saavutada ning tagada sellega Eestile kogu RRF toetuse väljamaksmine Euroopa Komisjoni poolt 2026.a. lõpuks. RRF on tulemuspõhine rahastamisinstrument, mille kohaselt teeb Euroopa Komisjon väljamakseid liikmesriikidele üksnes Taastekavas kokkulepitud investeeringute/reformide tulemuste (vahe-eesmärgid ja sihid) saavutamise alusel. Euroopa Komisjonilt laekub toetus rahastamiskokkuleppes määratud kindlasummaliste maksetena, mis ei ole otseses vastavuses riigisiseselt investeeringute/reformide rakendamisel tekkinud tegelike kuludega. Kuna Eestile on laekumas Euroopa Komisjonilt 2026.a. lõpus veel viimased kaks makset ning RRF-i rakendamise lõpptähtaeg on peagi saabumas, peame perioodi lõppedes tagama riigisiseselt tulude ja kulude vastavuse riigisiseses väljamaksete korras.

Sissejuhatus Taaste- ja vastupidavusrahastu (edaspidi RRF) rakendamiseks on „Taaste- ja vastupidavuskavas“ (edaspidi taastekava) kokku lepitud reformid ja investeeringud ning tulemused (eesmärgid ja sihid) koos tähtaegadega. Eelnõuga kiidetakse Euroopa Parlamendi ja nõukogu määruse (EL) nr 2021/241, millega luuakse taaste- ja vastupidavusrahastu (ELT L 57, 18.02.2021, lk 17-75), artikli 21 lõike 1 ja Vabariigi Valitsuse 29. novembri 2021 määruse nr 108 „Taaste- ja vastupidavuskava elluviimise korraldus ja toetuse andmise üldtingimused“ § 4 lõike 1 alusel heaks „Taaste- ja vastupidavuskava lisa“ muudatus. Taastekava koostati esmakordselt 2021.a. sügisel, kui lepiti Euroopa Komisjoniga kokku reformid ja investeeringud koos siduvate eesmärkide ja ajakavaga RRF toetuse kasutamiseks. 2023.a. alguses tehti seoses rahastu mahu vähendamise ja REPowerEU toetuse lisandumisega kavale muudatuste lisa, mis kiideti Euroopa Liidu Nõukogu poolt heaks mais 2023.a. 2025.a. sügisel ning 2026.a. algul muudeti Taastekava seoses muutunud olude – sõja, inflatsiooni ja majanduslanguse – mõjuga ning Euroopa Komisjoni 2025. a juunis antud lihtsustamisjuhiste rakendamiseks.

Kavandatav muudatus on mitteametlikult läbi räägitud ka Euroopa Komisjoniga. RRF on tulemuspõhine rahastamisinstrument, mille kohaselt teeb Euroopa Komisjon väljamakseid liikmesriikidele üksnes Taastekavas kokkulepitud investeeringute/reformide tulemuste (vahe-eesmärgid ja sihid) saavutamise alusel.

Seletuskirja koostas Rahandusministeeriumi riigieelarve osakonna nõunik Rita Tubarik ([email protected], telefon 54640212); eelnõu juriidilise ekspertiisi tegi Rahandusministeeriumi personali- ja õigusosakonna õigusloome valdkonna juht Virge Aasa ([email protected], telefon 58851493). 2. Eelnõu eesmärk Eelnõuga kinnitatakse Euroopa Parlamendi ja nõukogu määruse (EL) nr 2021/241, millega luuakse taaste- ja vastupidavusrahastu (ELT L 57, 18.02.2021, lk 17-75), artikli 21 lõike 1 ja Vabariigi Valitsuse 29. novembri 2021 määruse nr 108 „Taaste- ja vastupidavuskava elluviimise korraldus ja toetuse andmise üldtingimused“ § 4 lõike 1 alusel „Taaste- ja vastupidavuskava lisa“ muudatus. Eelnõuga kinnitatakse Taastekava alusel laekuva toetuse riigisisese väljamaksete korra muudatus. 3. Eelnõu sisu 3.1. Eelnõu otsusepunktiga 1 kinnitab Vabariigi Valitsus taaste- ja vastupidavuskava lisa. Taastekava muudatused Seoses RRF-i rakendamise lõpptähtaja peatse saabumisega 2026.a. augustis võimaldab Euroopa Komisjon liikmesriikidel Taastekavasid veel viimast korda muuta kuni 31.05.2026, et tagada kava edukas ja tähtaegne rakendamine ning kindlustada 2026.a. lõpuks rahastu väljamaksed täismahus. Eelmise Eesti Taastekava muudatusega 2026.a algul tehti vajalikud korrektuurid ära, kuid pärast vastavat kava muudatust ilmnes Haridus- ja Teadusministeeriumi investeeringutes asjaolusid, mis vajaksid kava muudatuse kaudu fikseerimist, et kindlustada Eestile kõik RRF-i väljamaksed 2026.a. lõpuks. Haridus- ja Teadusministeeriumi vastutusalas oleva reformi Oskuste reform ettevõtete digipöördeks rakendamise raames on ilmnenud, et koolitustegevustes osalemise sihttaset ei ole praegustes tingimustes võimalik saavutada. Võrreldes ajaga, mil meede algselt kavandati, on nii majanduskeskkonnas kui ka IKT-sektoris toimunud märkimisväärsed muutused. Majandusraskused, IKT-sektori nõudluse stabiliseerumine, koolitusturu küllastumine ning ettevõtete kasvav eelistus ettevõttesiseste AI-koolituste suhtes on vähendanud nii tööandjate kui ka osalejate huvi pikkade ümberõppeprogrammide vastu. Seetõttu tehakse ettepanek vähendada osalejate sihttaset 2000-lt 1818-le, säilitades samal ajal koolituste kvaliteedi ja sisulise mõju. Ühtlasi on vajalik muuta Haridus- ja Teadusministeeriumi koolitustegevusega seotud tulemuste kirjeldust, selleks, et tulemuste saavutamise tõendamine oleks Eesti süsteemide vaates korrektne. Lisaks välja toodud muudatusele muudetakse Euroopa Komisjoni juhisele tuginedes osade Nõukogu rakendusotsuses (CID) välja toodud tulemuste kirjeldusi, eesmärgiga lihtsustada Taastekava rakendamist ja tulemuste tõendamist lihtsustada ning teha rahastu sulgemine 2026.a. sujuvamaks. Võttes arvesse Euroopa Komisjoni lihtsustamise juhiseid, muudetakse järgmiste Taastekava investeeringute/reformide sh tulemuste kirjeldusi ja/või esitatavat tõendusmaterjali: T13; T20; T27; T31; M98 Uuendustega CID-projekt, mis esitatakse pärast Taastekava muudatuste ametlikku heakskiitmist Euroopa Komisjoni poolt Euroopa Liidu Nõukogule kinnitamiseks, on esitatud käesoleva eelnõu lisas. 3.2. Eelnõu otsusepunktiga 2 kinnitab Vabariigi Valitsus Taaste- ja vastupidavuskava alusel laekuva toetuse riigisisene väljamaksete korra. Seoses RRF-i rakendamisperioodi lõppemise ja viimaste arveldustega, on vajalik muuta ka Euroopa Komisjonilt laekuva toetuse riigisisest väljamaksete korda ministeeriumide vahel. Muudatus on vajalik, et tagada Euroopa Komisjonilt laekuva toetuse korrektne ja läbipaistev jaotamine vastutavate ministeeriumide vahel ning vältida olukorda, kus jaotus ei vasta tehtud kuludele ega võimalda perioodi lõpus tulude ja kulude tasakaalustamist. Arvestades, et kõik RRF-i raames kokkulepitud tulemused peavad olema saavutatud hiljemalt 2026. aasta augusti lõpuks ning pärast seda tähtaega Euroopa Komisjon tulemusi enam arvesse ei võta, on oluline, et riigisisene väljamaksete kord arvestaks rakendamise lõppfaasi eripärasid, sealhulgas kulude abikõlblikkuse perioodi lõppemist ning väljamaksete ajastust. Vabariigi Valitsuse 29. novembri 2021 määruse nr 108 „Taaste- ja vastupidavuskava elluviimise korraldus ja toetuse andmise üldtingimused“ § 2 lõike 13 järgi tuleb abikõlblikkuse perioodil tekkinud kulud tasuda hiljemalt 30. oktoobriks 2026. a. Pärast nimetatud tähtaega tasutud kulud toetusest hüvitamisele ei kuulu. Kui ministeeriumid on abikõlblikud kulud 30.oktoobriks 2026.a. ära teinud ning Euroopa Komisjonilt laekuvad Eestile viimased toetuse väljamaksed, siis tehakse ministeeriumidele viimased maksed vastavalt reformi/investeeringu eelarve piires 31.08.2026 seisuga tekkinud seni laekumata nõuete mahule. 3.3. Eelnõu otsusepunkti 3 kohaselt esitab Rahandusministeerium taastekava lisa Euroopa Komisjonile heakskiitmiseks.

COMPONENT 8: REPOWEREU The REPowerEU chapter addresses the challenge of reducing reliance on fossil fuels. The objectives of the component are to facilitate the deployment of renewable energy sources; to facilitate decarbonising selected economic sectors; to increase the capacity of the electricity distribution network; to boost the uptake of sustainable biomethane and to accelerate the integration of renewable energy sources. The REPowerEU chapter supports addressing the Country Specific Recommendation to reduce overall reliance on fossil fuels by accelerating the deployment of renewables, including through further streamlining of permitting procedures and strengthening the domestic electricity network (Country Specific Recommendation 4 in 2022). It is expected that no measure in this component does significant harm to environmental objectives within the meaning of Article 17 of Regulation (EU) 2020/852, taking into account the description of the measures and the mitigating steps set out in the recovery and resilience plan in accordance with the‘Dono significant harm’ Technical Guidance (2021/C58/01). The implementation of the measure facilitating the deployment of renewable energy sources, the measure to increase the access of renewable energy production to the electricity distribution network and the measure increasing production and uptake of sustainable biomethane are all expected to contribute to reducing dependency on fossil fuels. Increasing the share of renewable energy sources has a cross-border or multi-country dimension, especially in the Baltic region and Finland, because it contributes to securing the energy supply in the Union as a whole. Less dependency on imported fossil fuels will also create European added value as it will free up supply for other Member States, in the current situation of natural gas supply constraints, and until other Member States succeed in reducing their dependency on fossil fuels. H.1. Description of the reforms and investments for non-repayable financial support 8.1 Reform: Facilitating the development of renewable energy sources The objective of the reform is to facilitate the development of renewable energy sources, notably wind energy. The reform consists of legislative amendments to streamline planning, permitting and environmental impact assessment processes for wind energy projects; the establishment of wind priority development areas; support to local authorities to improve administrative procedures, including permitting, for wind energy development. 8.2.
