Secure Citizen Registration

The plan is based on welfare encompassing all who live in the country and on every person's right to have somewhere to live becoming reality. Lacking a registered residence address effectively excludes homeless people from just that general welfare. The counter-proposal's demands for a functioning arrangement for those who live in Sweden without permanent housing therefore follow from the plan's commitment to a more inclusive society.

• welfare for all residentsdecisive»Att välfärden omfattar alla som bor i vårt land har länge varit en viktig del i det som gjort Sverige till ett tryggt och jämlikt land.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“That welfare encompasses all who live in our country has long been an important part of what has made Sweden a secure and equal country.”
• the right to housing»Vi vill bygga ett samhälle där varje människas rätt att ha någonstans att bo« (party programme ↗)“We want to build a society where every person's right to have somewhere to live”
• general welfare»Tillsammans kan vi hjälpas åt och se till att alla medborgare« (party programme ↗)“Together we can help each other and ensure that all citizens”
• inclusive society»Vi vill skapa ett mer inkluderande samhälle genom att stärka välfärden« (party programme ↗)“We want to create a more inclusive society by strengthening welfare”

The plan establishes that housing is a social right and demands social policy that narrows divides and a social safety net with support for those who need it. That someone who resides in Sweden but lacks permanent housing shall be able to be registered as a resident, and thereby reach society's services and their rights, follows from these commitments. The plan does not accept that the most vulnerable fall out of society's system.

• housing as a social rightdecisive»Bostaden är en social rättighet.« (party programme ↗)“Housing is a social right.”
• equalizing social policy»En socialpolitik som utjämnar klyftor och frigör människor.« (party programme ↗)“Social policy that narrows divides and liberates people.”
• safety net for the most vulnerable»Socialt skyddsnät under hela livet, med robusta socialförsäkringar och stöd till dem« (party programme ↗)“Social safety net throughout life, with robust social insurance and support for those”
• access to society's services»God service och välfärd till medborgarna oavsett var i landet de bor.« (party programme ↗)“Good services and welfare for citizens regardless of where in the country they live.”

The plan aims to reduce homelessness through a national strategy and a housing foundation for those lacking secure accommodation, and establishes that housing shall be reinstated as a social right. Secure housing is described as the key to putting other parts of life in order, and the socially vulnerable should receive the support required. That homeless people lose access to public services due to requirements for a registration address contradicts this. The counter-proposal's demands for functioning order are supported.

• reduced homelessnessdecisive»minska hemlösheten, genom en nationell strategi som på riktigt minskar hemlösheten och en bostadsstiftelse som finansierar en bostad för dem som inte har ett tryggt boende.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“reduce homelessness, through a national strategy that genuinely reduces homelessness and a housing foundation that finances a home for those without secure accommodation.”
• housing as the key»En trygg bostad är ofta nyckeln till att få ordning på andra delar av livet.« (party programme ↗)“Secure housing is often the key to putting other parts of life in order.”
• housing as a social right»Miljöpartiet vill återupprätta bostaden som en social rättighet.« (party programme ↗)“The Green Party wants to reinstate housing as a social right.”
• support for the socially vulnerable»stärka skyddet mot vräkning - särskilt för barnfamiljer - och säkra att socialt utsatta får« (party programme ↗)“strengthen protection against eviction - particularly for families with children - and ensure that the socially vulnerable receive”

The plan requires that basic security is so comprehensive that no one is allowed to fall through the safety nets and that those who have it worst must be lifted. Someone who is resident in Sweden but lacks permanent housing loses access to services and rights under current arrangements, which contradicts the commitment to equivalent welfare and services. Therefore, the demand for a functioning solution is supported.

• no one should fall through safety netsdecisive»Den grundläggande tryggheten måste vara så heltäckande att ingen tillåts falla igenom skyddsnäten« (party programme ↗)“Basic security must be so comprehensive that no one is allowed to fall through the safety nets”
• strengthen those who have it worst»När vi stärker möjligheterna för dem som har det sämst lyfter vi hela samhället.« (party programme ↗)“When we strengthen opportunities for those who have it worst, we lift the entire society.”
• equivalent welfare and services»Alla invånare ska ha tillgång till en likvärdig och pålitlig välfärd oavsett var de bor, och den offentliga servicen ska finnas där när man behöver den.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“All residents must have access to equivalent and reliable welfare regardless of where they live, and public services must be available when needed.”
• access to rights»Alla som bor i Sverige ska kunna få sin sak prövad.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Everyone who lives in Sweden must be able to get their case reviewed.”

The plan establishes that every individual has the right to basic economic and social security and that no one in a welfare society should have to live homeless. Lacking a registered address effectively locks homeless people out of society's systems, which conflicts with that principle. The counter-proposal's requirement for a functioning arrangement for those without permanent housing is therefore supported.

• basic social securitydecisive»Varje individ har rätt till kunskap och grundläggande ekonomisk och social trygghet.« (party programme ↗)“Every individual has the right to knowledge and basic economic and social security.”
• no one shall be homeless»I ett välfärdssamhälle som Sverige borde ingen behöva leva i hemlöshet.« (party programme ↗)“In a welfare society like Sweden, no one should have to live homeless.”
• state responsibility for homeless»Staten bör ta ett ökat ansvar för att finansiera bostäder för hem- och bostadslösa med ett tydligt fokus på barn.« (party programme ↗)“The state should take increased responsibility for financing housing for homeless and housing-deprived with a clear focus on children.”
• rights regardless of status»Att vara papperslös är inte att vara rättslös.« (party programme ↗)“To be undocumented is not to be rightless.”

The party programme makes the solidarity principle a shared responsibility for all people, particularly the vulnerable, and establishes that the public ultimately bears responsibility for ensuring that everyone can live a safe and dignified life. That a person without fixed residence falls out of the population register and thus out of society's system contradicts that commitment. Therefore, the counter-proposal's demand for a functioning arrangement for these people follows from the plan.

• ultimate responsibility for alldecisive»Men det offentliga är ytterst ansvarigt för att alla ska kunna leva ett tryggt och värdigt liv.« (party programme ↗)“But the public is ultimately responsible for ensuring that everyone can live a safe and dignified life.”
• solidarity with the vulnerable»Solidaritetsprincipen motiverar oss att ta gemensamt ansvar för alla människor, i synnerhet de utsatta.« (party programme ↗)“The solidarity principle motivates us to take shared responsibility for all people, particularly the vulnerable.”
• secured housing provision»Stat och kommun måste därför trygga bostadsförsörjningen åt alla, i olika åldrar och med olika sociala och ekonomiska förutsättningar.« (party programme ↗)“The state and municipalities must therefore ensure housing provision for all, at different ages and with different social and economic conditions.”
• dignity towards the most vulnerable»Värdigheten i ett samhälle kan bäst bedömas utifrån hur man bemöter de mest behövande människorna.« (party programme ↗)“Dignity in a society can best be assessed by how the most vulnerable people are treated.”

The plan calls it a matter of decency that everyone has a roof over their head and promises a zero vision for homelessness with increased state funding for housing support, and the party programme says that no one should be left to their fate. For someone who actually lives in Sweden to lose their administrative existence contradicts this. At the same time, the plan requires control over the population register, so support applies to a solution that does not open for fraud.

• homelessness is unacceptabledecisive»Att alla har tak över huvudet är en anständighetsfråga i ett välfärdsland som Sverige. Ändå ökar hemlösheten bland äldre, vilket är en oacceptabel utveckling.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“That everyone has a roof over their head is a matter of decency in a welfare country like Sweden. Yet homelessness is increasing among the elderly, which is an unacceptable development.”
• zero vision for homelessness»Införa en nollvision för hemlöshet bland pensionärer och öka den statliga finansieringen av boendestöd« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Introduce a zero vision for homelessness among pensioners and increase state funding for housing support”
• no one is left to their fate»Det ska alltid finnas en väg tillbaka för den som misslyckats eller drabbats av olycka.« (party programme ↗)“There must always be a way back for those who have failed or been struck by misfortune.”
• correct population register»Moderaterna tänker ta kontroll över folkbokföringen för att stoppa bidragsbrotten och se till att de skattepengar du betalar in används till det de är avsedda för.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“The Moderates intend to take control of the population register to stop benefit fraud and ensure that the public funds you pay in are used for what they are intended for.”

The election manifesto states that homelessness has worsened and makes combating it a priority social issue, and the party programme's people's home line is that society steps in when someone cannot stand on their own feet. That those living in Sweden but lacking permanent accommodation should be able to be registered follows from that. The plan does not address registration rules as such, which makes the assessment uncertain.

• combat homelessnessdecisive»Att bekämpa hemlöshet är en prioriterad social fråga för Sverigedemokraterna.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Combating homelessness is a priority social issue for Sweden Democrats.”
• social safety net»alla skall kunna lita på att samhället träder in och hjälper en när man av olika anledningar inte kan stå på egna ben« (party programme ↗)“everyone shall be able to rely on society stepping in and helping them when for various reasons they cannot stand on their own feet”
• growing homelessness»Problem med hemlöshet har förvärrats under lång tid.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Problems with homelessness have worsened over a long time.”
• public responsibility for housing»Sverigedemokraternas bedömning är att marknaden inte ensam kan garantera alla medborgare rätten till en bostad.« (party programme ↗)“Sweden Democrats' assessment is that the market alone cannot guarantee all citizens the right to housing.”
