Future form of legislation etc.

The plan wants to make all parts of society accessible and sees housing as part of a larger societal development that shall last over a long time. Limiting exceptions to accessibility requirements to renovations and not applying them to new construction aligns with both commitments. The plan's demands for cheap rental apartments speak for lower housing costs, but not at the cost of locking newly built housing into narrow use.

The election manifesto establishes that people with disabilities shall be able to live their life like others and that it shall be safe to grow old in Sweden. Newly built apartments exempt from accessibility requirements cannot readily be used for elderly later, which speaks for limiting exemptions to renovations. The party programme sees housing as a social right. The plan therefore supports the counter-proposal's requirement.

• accessibility for people with disabilitiesdecisive»Personer med funktionsnedsättning ska kunna leva sitt liv som andra.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“People with disabilities shall be able to live their life like others.”
• safe aging»Det ska vara tryggt att åldras i Sverige.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“It shall be safe to grow old in Sweden.”

• right to own housing»funktionsförmåga, har rätt till arbete, eget boende, full rörelsefrihet och ett aktivt liv.« (party programme ↗)“functional capacity, have the right to work, own housing, full mobility and an active life.”

The party programme establishes that lack of accessibility is a form of discrimination and that construction shall be done resource-efficiently and sustainably, with housing that is demanded by young people, elderly and other groups. Allowing exceptions to apply also to new construction locks new buildings into a single use. The plan therefore supports that exceptions are limited to renovation.

• inaccessibility is discriminationdecisive»Bristande tillgänglighet är i sig en typ av diskriminering och måste därför bli en ny diskrimineringsgrund.« (party programme ↗)“Lack of accessibility is in itself a type of discrimination and must therefore become a new ground for discrimination.”
• long-term sustainable construction»Byggnation ska ske på ett yteffektivt, resurseffektivt och klimatsmart sätt.« (party programme ↗)“Construction shall be done in an area-efficient, resource-efficient and climate-smart manner.”
• housing for all groups»Vi behöver se till att det byggs bostäder som efterfrågas av unga, studenter, äldre, stora familjer och låginkomsttagare.« (party programme ↗)“We need to ensure that housing is built that is demanded by young people, students, elderly, large families and low-income earners.”
• equal rights»Alla människor, oavsett funktionsnedsättning eller förmågor, ska ha lika rättigheter, möjligheter och skyldigheter.« (party programme ↗)“All people, regardless of disability or abilities, shall have equal rights, opportunities and responsibilities.”

The plan wants to create a society with full accessibility and emphasizes that different housing forms are needed so that everyone can be offered safety and good care, especially for a secure old age. Letting the exceptions apply also to new construction locks a narrow field of use in housing that shall stand for many decades. Limiting the concessions to renovation therefore lies closer to the plan, even though it simultaneously wants to see more housing built.

• full accessibilitydecisive»Tillgängligheten är avgörande för människor med olika funktionsnedsättningar.« (party programme ↗)“Accessibility is crucial for people with different disabilities.”
• secure old age»Alla ska kunna få en trygg ålderdom med hög livskvalitet och värdighet.« (party programme ↗)“Everyone shall be able to have a secure old age with high quality of life and dignity.”

• more housing needed»En förutsättning för utveckling är att det finns tillräckligt med bostäder i hela landet.« (party programme ↗)“A prerequisite for development is that there is sufficient housing throughout the country.”

The plan establishes that Sweden shall be an accessible country, that lack of accessibility shall be seen as discrimination and that a variety of homes adapted for the elderly are needed. To let exemptions apply also to new construction locks in homes that cannot be used flexibly over time. To limit the relief to renovation thus comes closer to the plan, despite its desire to simplify building regulations.

• lack of accessibility is discriminationdecisive»tillgänglighet ska ses som diskriminering.« (party programme ↗)“lack of accessibility shall be seen as discrimination.”
• homes adapted for the elderly»bostäder anpassade för äldre, både på den vanliga bostadsmarknaden och i form av äldreboenden.« (party programme ↗)“homes adapted for the elderly, both on the regular housing market and in the form of senior residences.”

The plan states that housing and urban planning affect living environment for a long time and therefore must create lasting values, and that special consideration shall be given to the elderly and people with disabilities. Permanently building in lower accessibility requirements in new construction locks in the existing stock and makes future conversion to for example elderly housing difficult. Limiting exemptions to renovation thus follows from the plan's stewardship thinking.

• lasting values in constructiondecisive»Bostäder och samhällsplanering påverkar i hög grad och under lång tid vår livsmiljö. Därför är det av stor vikt med en arkitektur och stadsplanering som skapar bestående värden och är hållbar i begreppets fulla bemärkelse.« (party programme ↗)“Housing and urban planning significantly affect and for a long time our living environment. Therefore it is of great importance with architecture and urban planning that creates lasting values and is sustainable in the full sense of the term.”

The plan wants to increase construction through simpler regulations, including by replacing advanced detailed plans with simpler building plans and removing one-third of regulatory red tape. Limiting the simplifications to renovation and exempting new construction would greatly reduce their effect on new production. With housing shortages in 207 of 290 municipalities, the plan therefore argues against the counter-proposal's limitation.

The election manifesto wants to increase housing construction and states that new construction can be facilitated by reviewing building standards and simplifying processes. The counter-proposal wants to limit exceptions to renovations and maintain full requirements for new construction. It removes precisely the relief the plan seeks for production of smaller and cheaper housing.
