Follow-up and reporting of the new rules

The plan provides here general principles: ambitious environmental targets shall be followed up with sharp legislation and practical work, and legal certainty shall be maintained through transparency and independent scrutiny. Individual proportionality assessments on sufficient foundation, open reporting of effects and shared guidance align with that. The plan therefore supports the counter-proposal's demands.

• environmental targets followed updecisive»miljömål som följs upp med skarp lagstiftning och praktiskt arbete.« (party programme ↗)“environmental targets followed up with sharp legislation and practical work.”
• legal certainty and transparency»Rättssäkerheten behöver upprätthållas genom rättshjälp, medborgerlig« (party programme ↗)“Legal certainty needs to be maintained through legal aid, civic”
• report actual effects»förslag som visar sig effektiva och rättvisa den dag de genomförs.« (party programme ↗)“proposals that show themselves effective and fair the day they are implemented.”

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 plan wants to speed up slow permit processes and remove bureaucratic obstacles, at the same time as decisions shall be legally secure and the climate perspective is weighed in. Common guidance, methodological support and individual proportionality assessments on sufficient evidence reduce precisely that delay and uncertainty the counter-proposal points to. The plan says nothing about monitoring of these rules, so security is low.

• faster permit processesdecisive»Riv de byråkratiska hindren för mer el. Långsamma tillståndsprocesser ska snabbas på.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Remove bureaucratic obstacles for more electricity. Slow permit processes shall be sped up.”
• climate perspective in decisions»Klimatperspektiv på alla nivåer av beslut och beslutsfattande.« (party programme ↗)“Climate perspective at all levels of decision-making.”
• lawful application»Slå vakt om rättsstatens principer.« (party programme ↗)“Defend the principles of the rule of law.”

The plan does not address these specific exception provisions, but it requires that legislation be carefully scrutinised from the perspective of legal certainty and that power is always critically reviewed. Individual proportionality assessments on sufficient basis, open reporting of effects and shared guidance are expressions of that order. The counter-proposal's requirements thus align most closely with the plan's principles of legal certainty and transparency.

• legally certain application of lawdecisive»prövas noggrant utifrån rättssäkerhet och grundläggande fri- och rättigheter.« (party programme ↗)“be carefully scrutinised from the perspective of legal certainty and fundamental freedoms and rights.”
• power must be scrutinised»Överdriven maktkoncentration är odemokratiskt och korrumperar.« (party programme ↗)“Excessive concentration of power is undemocratic and corrupts.”
• clear rules and supervision»en tydlig lagstiftning mot miljöförstöring och en effektiv tillsyn« (party programme ↗)“clear legislation against environmental damage and effective supervision”

The plan requires shorter lead times in government administration, that state authorities cooperate and that Sweden becomes even more transparent, which lies in line with the counter-proposal's requirement for individual proportionality assessments, open accounting of effects and shared guidance. The plan also wants given and foreseeable rules, which speaks against today's uncertainty in application. The matter is not directly addressed in the plan, therefore the conclusion is derived.

• shorter handling timesdecisive»Alla som bor i Sverige ska kunna få sin sak prövad. Ledtiderna för handläggning och myndighetsutövning i domstolar och myndigheter måste kortas och tillgången till ombud förbättras.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Everyone living in Sweden shall be able to get their matter reviewed. Lead times for handling and government administration in courts and authorities must be shortened and access to representatives improved.”
• authority cooperation»Statliga myndigheter måste samverka och arbeta marksnålt när man tar ny mark i anspråk för väg, tåg, el, etc.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“State authorities must cooperate and work tightly when taking new land for road, railway, power, etc.”
• foreseeable rules»Ekonomin ska ha givna och förutsägbara spelregler« (party programme ↗)“The economy shall have given and foreseeable rules”
• open accounting»Sverige ska bli ännu mer transparent. Vi vill inrätta en antikorruptionsmyndighet, skärpa regler mot korruption och införa ett lobbyregister.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Sweden shall become even more transparent. We want to establish an anti-corruption authority, sharpen rules against corruption and introduce a lobby register.”

The plan does not address the current licensing examination or its exception provisions. The nearest-lying principles are that the individual's opportunities to assert their rights against authorities shall increase, that already introduced far-reaching laws shall be regularly evaluated and that publicity is a precondition for scrutiny. The counter-proposal's requirement for individual proportionality assessments, open reporting of effects and common guidance lies in line with these principles.

• individual's right against authoritiesdecisive»Den enskildes möjligheter att hävda sina rättigheter gentemot myndigheterna måste öka.« (party programme ↗)“The individual's opportunities to assert their rights against authorities must increase.”
• regular evaluation»Redan införda lagar med stark påverkan på den personliga integriteten ska regelbundet utvärderas.« (party programme ↗)“Already introduced laws with strong impact on personal integrity shall be regularly evaluated.”
• openness and scrutiny»Offentlighetsprincipen har en grundläggande betydelse för att förankra och fördjupa folkstyret, och är en förutsättning för granskning och debatt.« (party programme ↗)“The principle of publicity has fundamental significance for anchoring and deepening popular rule, and is a precondition for scrutiny and debate.”

The party programme requires that the rules the state sets up for companies are long-term and that bureaucracy and complicated rules are countered, while evaluation and monitoring are highlighted as important political tasks. The counter-proposal's demand for proportionality assessments on adequate grounds, open reporting and shared guidance aims precisely to reduce delay and uncertainty for operators. The plan therefore sides with the counter-proposal.

• long-term rules for companiesdecisive»Det är viktigt att de regler staten ställer upp för företagen är långsiktiga.« (party programme ↗)“It is important that the rules the state sets up for companies are long-term.”
• counter bureaucracy»Byråkrati och krångliga regler ska motverkas.« (party programme ↗)“Bureaucracy and complicated rules shall be countered.”
• monitoring as a political task»Utvärdering, kostnadsuppföljning och kvalitetskontroll är därför viktiga politiska uppgifter.« (party programme ↗)“Evaluation, cost monitoring and quality control are therefore important political tasks.”
• small business perspective»Tillkommande lagar bör prövas ur ett småföretagarperspektiv.« (party programme ↗)“Forthcoming laws should be tested from a small business perspective.”

The plan wants to shorten government agencies' processing times with a final deadline and make it easy to do right through sharply reduced regulatory red tape. The counter-proposal's demands for individual proportionality assessments on sufficient grounds and joint guidance from agencies aim precisely at removing the delay and uncertainty the plan criticizes. The party programme's demands for equal treatment and predictability in the exercise of power point in the same direction.

• shorter processing timesdecisive»Korta myndigheternas handläggningstider genom en bortre tidsgräns« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Shorten government agencies' processing times through a final deadline”
• predictable exercise of government authority»principer om likabehandling och förutsebarhet« (party programme ↗)“principles of equal treatment and predictability”
• easy to do right»Där det är lätt att göra rätt – för att en tredjedel av regelkrånglet tagits bort.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Where it is easy to do right – because one-third of the regulatory red tape has been removed.”

The plan requires that permit processes be made more efficient and predictable and that regulations be simplified while legal certainty is improved, with criticism that processes today are long and unpredictable. The counter-proposal's requirement for individual proportionality assessments on sufficient grounds, open disclosure of effects and joint agency guidance meets that. The matter is not directly addressed in the plan, which is why the position is derived.

• predictable permit processesdecisive»Effektivisera och öka förutsägbarheten i tillståndsprocesserna för gruvnäring, elnätsutbyggnad och industri« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Make permit processes for mining, electricity grid expansion and industry more efficient and increase their predictability”
• legally secure regulations»Förenkla regelverken och förbättra rättssäkerheten« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Simplify regulations and improve legal certainty”
• against delay and uncertainty»Tillståndsprocesser är ofta långa och oförutsägbara« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Permit processes are often long and unpredictable”
• open disclosure»Begära tydliga resultat för varje offentlig satsning« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Request clear results for each public initiative”
