Jürgen Ligi was elected the Chairman of the National Defence Committee of the Riigikogu, and Aivar Riisalu was re-elected the Deputy Chairman.

The elections of Chairman and Deputy Chairman of the National Defence Committee were held on the Thursday sitting of the Committee because the Chairman of the National Defence Committee Mati Raidma resigned from his office.

Prime Minister Taavi Rõivas is planning to nominate Mati Raidma as candidate for Minister of the Environment. If the President appoints Mati Raidma the Minister of the Environment, he will leave the Riigikogu on 17 November.
