Historical vehicles and the motor hobby

The plan says nothing about motor hobbies or inspection regulations. The nearest related principles are that the party sees arbitrary official exercise of power as a problem and wants to protect the space for associational life and leisure activities outside commercial logic. Based on these principles, the plan weakly speaks for a review that makes the regulations predictable for vehicle owners and inspection bodies.

• against arbitrary official actiondecisive»Människor möts ibland av godtyckligt myndighetsutövande« (party programme ↗)“People sometimes meet arbitrary official exercise of power”
• value associational life space»Det gäller exempelvis tillgång till lokaler och utrymmen« (party programme ↗)“This concerns for example access to premises and spaces”
• value leisure and cultural heritage»Även kulturen och idrotten har utarmats när skolbibliotek läggs ned, simskolan blivit dyrare och biografer finns på färre orter.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Culture and sports have also been impoverished when school libraries are closed, swimming schools become more expensive and cinemas are found in fewer places.”

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 does not address inspection regulations, rebuilt vehicles or motor hobbies. The closest principles are that civil society's associational life is the foundation of democracy and that access to leisure activities needs to increase, and that the plan does not want to put obstacles in the way for those who need the car. Based on these principles, the plan speaks weakly for a modernization of the regulatory framework, provided that basic safety is maintained. The position is inferred, not stated in the plan.

• civil society's valuedecisive»Ett starkt och levande civilsamhälle är demokratins underbyggnad.« (party programme ↗)“A strong and vibrant civil society is the foundation of democracy.”
• access to leisure activities»Tillgången till fritidsaktiviteter till rimliga kostnader, både vad gäller idrott och kultur, behöver öka.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Access to leisure activities at reasonable cost, both in terms of sports and culture, needs to increase.”
• do not blame car drivers»Klimatkrisen kan aldrig lösas med att skuldbelägga människor som behöver ta bilen till affären« (2022 manifesto ↗)“The climate crisis can never be solved by blaming people who need to take the car to the store”

The plan does not address motor hobbies or inspection regulations. The closest commitments are that cultural heritage shall be preserved and that unnecessary bureaucracy shall be avoided through active deregulation work, which suggests a review of the rules. The plan's requirement that instruments shall promote vehicles that meet climate and health goals at the same time sets a limit, but the counter-proposal does not request any relief there.

• active deregulation workdecisive»Onödig byråkrati ska undvikas genom ett aktivt« (party programme ↗)“Unnecessary bureaucracy shall be avoided through active”
• cultural heritage preserved»Kulturarvet är vårt gemensamma arv.« (party programme ↗)“Cultural heritage is our common heritage.”
• instruments for clean vehicles»Lagar och ekonomiska styrmedel ska användas för« (party programme ↗)“Laws and economic instruments shall be used for”

The plan's overarching commitment is to clean up excess regulations and bureaucracy and that the state shall not over-regulate people's lives. A review and modernization of inspection rules for rebuilt and amateur-built vehicles is such regulatory simplification, and vehicle hobby is moreover a civil society activity whose barriers politics according to the plan shall remove. The hobby is not mentioned, so the position is derived.

• clean up excess rulesdecisive»Vi ska rensa upp bland överflödiga regler och byråkrati.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“We shall clean up excess regulations and bureaucracy.”
• regulatory simplification»Rensa upp i regelträsket för entreprenörer, stora som små.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Clean up the regulatory jungle for entrepreneurs, large and small.”
• remove barriers for civil society»Politikens uppgift är att riva hinder och röja väg för denna utvecklingskraft.« (party programme ↗)“Politics' task is to remove barriers and clear the way for this creative force.”
• care for heritage»vårda och utveckla ett kulturarv« (party programme ↗)“care for and develop a cultural heritage”

The plan does not address inspection rules or automotive hobbies. The closest commitments are that policy should quickly remove obstacles for companies and people, that cultural heritage should be kept accessible for coming generations and that amateur culture has its own value. Based on these principles, the plan argues for a review and modernization of the regulatory framework for rebuilt and amateur-built vehicles.

• remove unnecessary obstaclesdecisive»Politikens uppgift måste vara att snabbt undanröja hinder för att underlätta för företag och människor att ta vara på de möjligheter som den tekniska utvecklingen skapar.« (party programme ↗)“The task of policy must be to quickly remove obstacles to facilitate companies and people taking advantage of the opportunities created by technological development.”
• preserved cultural heritage»Kulturarvet – vårt gemensamma minne i form av historiska lämningar, kulturlandskap, arkiv, traditioner, dialekter och annat – utvecklas ständigt genom att samtiden ger sitt bidrag.« (party programme ↗)“Cultural heritage – our shared memory in the form of historical remains, cultural landscapes, archives, traditions, dialects and other – is constantly developed as the present makes its contribution.”
• the value of amateur culture»Amatörkulturen ger möjligheter för enskild utveckling, stärker det civila samhället och kan bli en brygga över till professionellt kulturutövande.« (party programme ↗)“Amateur culture provides opportunities for individual development, strengthens civil society and can become a bridge to professional cultural practice.”

The plan's stewardship responsibility explicitly includes material cultural heritage in the form of objects and the customs and practices that have evolved through history, which affects the rolling cultural heritage. The plan also sees vehicles as means for leisure interests and freedom and requires that the traffic system be designed with regard to all approved vehicle types. A review and modernization of inspection rules for converted vehicles thus aligns with the plan's direction.

• stewardship of cultural heritagedecisive»vi ser i form av till exempel kulturhistorisk bebyggelse, fornlämningar och föremål men även de seder« (party programme ↗)“we see in the form of for example culturally historic buildings, archaeological remains and objects but also the customs”
• vehicles as leisure and freedom»fordonsslag är också medel för att förverkliga fritidsintressen och känna frihet.« (party programme ↗)“vehicle types are also means to realize leisure interests and feel freedom.”
• consideration for all vehicle types»Trafiksystemet ska utformas med hänsyn till alla« (party programme ↗)“The traffic system shall be designed with regard to all”
• strengthened civil society»STÄRKT CIVILSAMHÄLLE« (2022 manifesto ↗)“STRENGTHENED CIVIL SOCIETY”

The counter-proposal requires a review and modernization of inspection rules for rebuilt vehicles and protection against arbitrary authority decisions. The plan promises to significantly reduce red tape, shorten authorities' processing times and establishes in the party programme that exercise of public power should be guided by equal treatment and predictability. Motorism is not mentioned, but the requirements are in line with these commitments.

• less red tapedecisive»Ta bort en tredjedel av företagens administrationskostnader och en tredjedel av regelkrånglet« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Remove a third of companies' administrative costs and a third of red tape”
• predictable exercise of authority»principer om likabehandling och förutsebarhet.« (party programme ↗)“principles of equal treatment and predictability.”
• faster authority decisions»Korta myndigheternas handläggningstider genom en bortre tidsgräns« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Shorten authorities' processing times through a final deadline”
• the car as freedom»har råd att ta bilen, oavsett om den går på bensin eller el« (2022 manifesto ↗)“can afford to take the car, whether it runs on petrol or electric”

The election manifesto wants the motor-minded youth to feel that their interest is appreciated instead of being hunted by authorities, and emphasizes that cultural heritage should be protected and brought to life. The counter-proposal's demand for modernized and less arbitrary rules for inspection of modified vehicles is in line with the plan's general commitment to regulatory simplification and legal certainty in agency practice. The plan does not mention vehicle inspection, however, which is why the support is derived.

• protect motor enthusiasmdecisive»Till exempel behöver den motorburna ungdomen känna att deras intresse och engagemang uppskattas.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“For example, the motor-minded youth need to feel that their interest and engagement is appreciated.”
• regulatory simplification and legal certainty»Förenkla regelverken och förbättra rättssäkerheten« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Simplify the regulations and improve legal certainty”
• supportive authorities»Myndigheterna får inte bli företagens fiender som sätter käppar i hjulen utan måste få en mer stödjande funktion.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Authorities must not become the enemies of business that put spokes in the wheel but must get a more supportive function.”
• respect for cultural heritage»med en gemensam stolthet och respekt för det kulturella arvet« (2022 manifesto ↗)“with shared pride and respect for the cultural heritage”
