Why?

The Government is one of those who can initiate laws, but not the only one. A member of the Riigikogu, a parliamentary group (fraktsioon) and a committee also have the right to initiate laws, and so does the President for amending the Constitution. (PS § 103)

Translated with AI. In the exam the question is in Estonian, as shown above.
