* Compensating for damage incurred during the April riots is taking longer than planned, the Postimees daily reported May 28. The government initially promised to pay out compensation within 10 working days of receiving a damage report.
However Finance Ministry spokeswoman Kristi Kunnapas said government’s promise to pay that quickly was overly optimistic, since the documents related to the claims need to be properly checked.
At the beginning of May the government allocated 20 million kroons to pay for direct damage resulting from the unrest.
