6 SAATEKS Käesolev väljaanne kajastab Eesti Vabariigi IX Riigikogu tööd I, II ja III istungjärgul ajavahemikul Trükis annab ülevaate Riigikogu struktuurist ja tegevusest. Esimene osa sisaldab Riigikogu liikmete nimekirja ning fraktsioonide ja komisjonide loetelu. Teine osa käsitleb parlamendi seadusandlikku tegevust. Vastuvõetud aktid (sh seadusega ratifitseeritud välislepingud ja konventsioonid) on järjestatud Riigikogu alatiste komisjonide kaupa, nende piires alfabeetiliselt. Seadusandliku protsessi iseloomustamiseks on iga dokumendi (seaduste ja otsuste) juurde lisatud andmed eelnõu esitamise ja arutamise kohta. Loetletud on ka menetlusest välja arvatud eelnõud. Vastuvõetud aktide juures on viide Riigi Teatajale. Eraldi on esitatud Riigikogu liikmete arupärimised valitsuse liikmetele ja teistele kõrgematele riigiametnikele. Neljas osa annab ülevaate Riigikogu rahvusvahelistest suhetest. Trükise lõpus on Eesti Vabariigi aasta riigieelarve. Kroonika koostamisel on kasutatud Eesti õigusaktide registrit ESTLEX, Riigi Teatajaid ja Riigikogu kodulehekülge Internetis. Koostajad tänavad abi eest dokumendiosakonna juhatajat Kaja Vaabelit ja Riigikogu juhatuse nõunikku Helgi Kundlat. 7 kroonika1.p65 7
