Own housing

The counter-proposal wants to go further and clearly abolish asylum seekers' possibility of independent housing. The party programme requires an asylum policy based on respect for international conventions with dignified circumstances, and the election manifesto states that integration is not improved by making asylum seekers' situation more conditional and insecure. A sharpened restriction of housing choice therefore lacks support in the plan.

• inviolable right to asylumdecisive»Rätten att söka asyl kan aldrig tummas på, vi kräver att endast permanenta uppehållstillstånd ska utfärdas vid beviljad asyl.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“The right to seek asylum can never be compromised, we require that only permanent residence permits shall be issued when asylum is granted.”
• security fosters integration»Det är inte genom tidsbegränsade uppehållstillstånd som integrationen förbättras.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“It is not through time-limited residence permits that integration is improved.”
• dignified conditions in reception»sin rätt till en individuell och rättssäker prövning under värdiga« (party programme ↗)“their right to an individual and legally secure examination under dignified”
• secure conditions for newcomers»och leva på samma trygga villkor som andra.« (party programme ↗)“and live on the same secure conditions as others.”

The plan takes no explicit position on what the committee actually decided — often because the committee's reason was procedural. The stance is derived and fully cited, but it does not show the party broke a commitment.

The election manifesto explicitly establishes that asylum seekers shall no longer have the opportunity to choose where they will live, as part of work against residential segregation. The counter-proposal's requirement for a clearer abolition of self-directed accommodation, with exceptions only in special cases, is exactly this commitment. The manifesto also emphasizes that the restrictive migration policy holds and that all municipalities shall take their share of responsibility.

The counter-proposal wants to abolish the possibility of independent housing even more clearly, with exceptions only in special cases. The plan is based on people's right to choose where they want to live and that freedom of movement should be a human right, and wants those who have the right to asylum to be welcomed and given the opportunity to establish themselves. The demand for sharper abolition therefore directly contradicts the plan; distributing the burden fairly is solved in the plan through generous reception in all municipalities.

• right to choose place of residencedecisive»Vi tror inte på länders rätt att välja sina invånare, vi tror på människors rätt att välja var de vill bo.« (party programme ↗)“We do not believe in countries' right to choose their inhabitants, we believe in people's right to choose where they want to live.”
• welcoming reception»Den som har rätt till asyl ska välkomnas och ges möjlighet att etablera sig i Sverige.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Those who have the right to asylum shall be welcomed and given the opportunity to establish themselves in Sweden.”
• equal municipal reception»Alla kommuner ska ha ett generöst och likvärdigt flyktingmottagande.« (party programme ↗)“All municipalities shall have generous and equal refugee reception.”
• freedom of movement»Fri rörlighet borde vara en mänsklig rättighet.« (party programme ↗)“Freedom of movement should be a human right.”

The party programme establishes that it is not the borders that should be closed but the labour market that should be opened, and that the housing market must become more open while municipalities are given greater opportunities to manage the challenges. The counter-proposal's demand for a clearer abolition of the possibility of own housing is a restriction on the individual's choice that does not follow from the plan's openness line. The plan therefore speaks against the demand.

• open labour market not closed bordersdecisive»är inte gränserna som ska stängas, utan arbetsmarknaden som ska öppnas.« (party programme ↗)“it is not the borders that should be closed, but the labour market that should be opened.”
• more open housing market»Även bostadsmarknaden måste bli öppnare.« (party programme ↗)“The housing market too must become more open.”
• municipal responsibility for challenges»Kommunerna måste få större möjligheter att ta ansvar för dessa utmaningar.« (party programme ↗)“Municipalities must be given greater opportunities to take responsibility for these challenges.”
• individual self-determination»Centerpartiet kommer alltid att kämpa för ett friare Sverige där människor kan bestämma mer över sina egna liv.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“The Centre Party will always fight for a freer Sweden where people can decide more about their own lives.”

The party programme explicitly states that asylum seekers' possibility of own accommodation shall be abolished to prevent overcrowding and segregation. The counter-proposal's demand for clearer abolition with exceptions only in special cases is thus precisely the plan's line, whereas a change that in practice lets half stay in own accommodation does not reach the plan's goal. The plan also binds itself to that Sweden in 2030 shall not have a single vulnerable area and that all municipalities shall be able to receive newly arrived.

• EBO shall be abolisheddecisive»För att motverka trångboddhet och segregation ska asylsökandes möjlighet till eget boende (EBO)« (party programme ↗)“In order to prevent overcrowding and segregation asylum seekers' possibility of own accommodation (EBO)”
• no vulnerable areas in 2030»Vårt viktigaste mål är detta: Sverige ska år 2030 inte ha ett enda utsatt område.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Our most important goal is this: Sweden shall in 2030 not have a single vulnerable area.”
• more even municipal reception»Alla kommuner ska kunna ta emot nyanlända.« (party programme ↗)“All municipalities shall be able to receive newly arrived.”
• stricter migration policy»Ska integrationen lyckas måste Sverige få en migrationspolitik med en lagstiftning i linje med andra EU-länder.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“If integration is to succeed Sweden must have a migration policy with legislation in line with other EU countries.”

The election manifesto requires strict migration policy precisely to address integration problems and exclusion, and highlights strict migration and improved integration as its own commitments. The counter-proposal's requirement for clearer abolition of self-accommodation is motivated by the same problem. The party programme's statement about immigrants' right to settle where they want weighs against it, but the election manifesto carries the most weight during this term.

• strict migration against exclusiondecisive»Stram migrationspolitik krävs för att ta itu med integrationsproblem och utanförskap.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Strict migration policy is required to address integration problems and exclusion.”
• strict migration»EN STRAM MIGRATION« (2022 manifesto ↗)“STRICT MIGRATION”
• improved integration»FÖRBÄTTRAD INTEGRATION« (2022 manifesto ↗)“IMPROVED INTEGRATION”
• immigrants' freedom to settle»medborgare och ha rätt att bosätta sig var de vill« (party programme ↗)“citizens and have the right to settle where they want”

The plan requires a goal-driven, strict and sustainable migration policy and wants the term 'excluded area' relegated to history, while warning of a growing shadow society with social deprivation and criminality. The counter-proposal's demand for clearer abolition of own accommodation, with exceptions only in special cases, aligns with the order and control the plan presupposes in reception. The documents do not mention this system, so the conclusion is derived.

• strict migration policydecisive»En målstyrd, stram och hållbar migrationspolitik är en förutsättning för att integrationen ska fungera.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“A goal-driven, strict and sustainable migration policy is a prerequisite for integration to function.”
• break up excluded areas»För det finns ett Sverige där ordet utanförskapsområde är förpassat till historien, för att inget område längre är utanför.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“For there is a Sweden where the term excluded area is relegated to history, because no area is any longer excluded.”
• counter shadow society»Vi riskerar annars ett växande skuggsamhälle, med social utsatthet, illegalt arbete och brottslighet – där särskilt barn drabbas hårt.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“We risk otherwise a growing shadow society, with social deprivation, illegal work and criminality - where children in particular are hit hard.”
• orderly processes in reception»Vår öppenhet mot omvärlden ska alltid bygga på ordnade« (party programme ↗)“Our openness to the outside world shall always be built on orderly”

The election manifesto wants to sharpen the immigration act to the strictest possible level according to EU law and review social attraction factors to limit non-citizens' rights to welfare. A clearer abolition of own residence, with exceptions only in special cases, is in line with the strictest possible approach and with the fight against shadow society and segregation. That roughly half are still expected to choose own residence suggests, according to the plan's logic, a stricter rule, not a milder one.

• strictest possible immigration actdecisive»Skärpa reglerna i utlänningslagen till striktas möjliga nivå enligt EU-rätten« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Sharpen the rules in the immigration act to the strictest possible level according to EU law”
• reduce attraction factors»Sociala attraktionsfaktorer som exempelvis bidragssystem behöver ses över för att begränsa icke-medborgares rätt till välfärden.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Social attraction factors such as for example benefit systems need to be reviewed to limit non-citizens' rights to welfare.”
• combat the shadow society»Bekämpa skuggsamhället och illegal migration med fler kontroller och fler utvisningar« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Combat the shadow society and illegal migration with more controls and more deportations”
• raised threshold to welfare»Skärpa villkoren för medborgarskap och höja tröskeln för att ta del av skattefinansierad välfärd« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Sharpen the conditions for citizenship and raise the threshold for access to tax-financed welfare”
