Social Liberal group (Estonia)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Social Liberal group was formed on 8 May 2004 and ended in 10 May 2005, from the formal Centrists who left to form the Centre Party. The social-liberals have only a group status, not even a fraction or a party status even. Social-liberals have 3 seats in Parliament. In Riigikogu they had have a vice chairman chair, Peeter Kreitzberg. The group members have a different ideology, so it's possible that the group will split up to other parties. On 31 March they made an agreement with Estonian Socialdemocratic Party. This agreement declares their co-operation in parliament and in local council election in 2005th. On 4 April 2005, Olev Laanjärv returned to Centre Fraction. On 10 May 2005 Peeter Kreitzberg and Sven Mikser joined with ESDP, Robert Lepikson joined with People's Union and Harri Õunapuu joined with Reform Party. On 22 November Jaanus Marrandi joined with People's Union. On 27 November Mark Soosaar joined with ESDP.
