Telegraf notes that thus Latvian non-citizens also will be able to impact legislative process. According to the draft amendments, the Saeima will have to review such collective proposal at its session and if it is approved by the majority of MPs the draft proposal should be forwarded to the parliamentary Committees for discussion and revision.
