The future design of legislation

The plan emphasizes that environmental crimes amount to hundreds of billions per year and that companies account for the vast majority of them, and that economic crime is a central threat that eliminates serious businesses and decent conditions. To let foreign business prohibitions and failures to comply abroad constitute an independent ground for Swedish business prohibition sharpens exactly this tool. The plan says nothing about the committee's reason that a weighing within the examination suffices.

• combat economic crimedecisive»De samlade ekobrotten i Sverige beräknas uppgå till hundratals« (party programme ↗)“Combined environmental crimes in Sweden are estimated to amount to hundreds of”
• companies account for environmental crimes»Det är företagen som överlägset står för de flesta« (party programme ↗)“It is companies that by far account for the most”
• environmental crime as central threat»Lönedumpning, ekonomisk brottslighet och utnyttjande är centrala hot idag.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Wage dumping, economic crime and exploitation are central threats today.”
• stop criminal actors»Privatiseringarna av välfärden öppnar upp för kriminella att sko sig på skattemedel.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Privatizations of welfare open the door for criminals to profit from tax money.”

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 strike hard against the economics of crime, stop workplace crime and work for fair competition, and deepen international cooperation against crime. Allowing business prohibitions and breaches abroad to constitute their own basis for a Swedish business prohibition fulfils these commitments. The committee's reasoning about whether it suffices to weigh in the circumstances in the examination is not addressed by the plan.

• stop economic crimedecisive»Skattefusk, välfärdsbrottslighet och penningtvätt ska stoppas.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Tax fraud, welfare crime and money laundering shall be stopped.”
• fair competition in working life»Arbetslivs kriminalitet ska inte finnas på svensk arbetsmarknad och offentliga arbetsgivare och upphandlare ska vara föredömen i att verka för en sund konkurrens.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Workplace crime shall not exist in the Swedish labour market and public employers and purchasers shall be exemplars in working for fair competition.”
• international cooperation against crime»Vi vill se fler och intensifierande internationella samarbeten mot smuggling av bland annat vapen och narkotika.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“We want to see more and intensifying international cooperation against smuggling of, among other things, weapons and drugs.”
• clear response to crime»Samhället måste reagera tydligt mot brott och regelöverträdelser.« (party programme ↗)“Society must respond clearly to crime and breaches of rules.”

The election manifesto wants to stop the financing of criminal gangs by having authorities strike at the enterprises of crime from multiple angles, and states that it shall be expensive, tedious and difficult to be criminal. To let business bans and violations abroad constitute a separate ground for business bans strengthens precisely that tool against economic crime. The plan does not mention business bans, so the conclusion is derived.

• strike at enterprises of crimedecisive»stoppa finansieringen av de kriminella gängen genom att stärka myndighetssamverkan« (2022 manifesto ↗)“stop the financing of criminal gangs by strengthening inter-agency cooperation”
• unprofitable to be criminal»Det ska vara dyrt, jobbigt och svårt att vara kriminell.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“It shall be expensive, tedious and difficult to be criminal.”

The plan requires strong action against crimes affecting business and that society does not yield to criminal networks, which argues for that business bans and disqualifications abroad shall constitute independent grounds for business ban. The plan also builds on the economy having fixed and predictable rules, which protects honest businesses against dishonest competition. The plan therefore supports the counter-proposal's demands in substance, although it simultaneously safeguards rule-of-law guarantees.

• strong action against crime against businessdecisive»För att Sveriges företag även fortsättningsvis ska kunna leverera produkter, tjänster och jobb i världsklass krävs en pålitlig infrastruktur i hela landet, satsningar på forskning och utveckling och krafttag mot brott emot företag.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“For Sweden's companies to continue to deliver world-class products, services and jobs, we need reliable infrastructure throughout the country, investments in research and development and strong action against crime against business.”
• combat criminal networks»Samhället ska inte vika sig för gängen.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Society shall not yield to gangs.”
• sound competition and fair terms»Ekonomin ska ha givna och förutsägbara spelregler« (party programme ↗)“The economy shall have fixed and predictable rules”
• rule-of-law guarantees»Rättsstaten och individens rättigheter gentemot staten måste försvaras. Vi säger därför nej till visitationszoner, kollektiv bestraffning, omvänd bevisbörda, anonyma vittnen, preventiv avlyssning och inskränkningar av religionsfriheten.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“The rule of law and the individual's rights against the state must be defended. We therefore say no to stop-and-search zones, collective punishment, reverse burden of proof, anonymous witnesses, preventive surveillance and restrictions on freedom of religion.”

The plan's core commitment is that transnational crime shall be met with transnational tools and that reoffending and repeated crime shall result in stricter consequences. That a foreign business ban or disregard abroad can constitute independent grounds for business ban is precisely such a tightening that lets foreign violations count fully. The plan gives no support for it being sufficient that such circumstances are only weighed in.

• transnational crime-fightingdecisive»Gränsöverskridande brottslighet måste mötas med en gränsöverskridande polis.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Transnational crime must be met with a transnational police.”
• stricter consequences for reoffending»Påföljdssystemet ska förändras så att återfall och upprepad brottslighet ger strängare straff« (party programme ↗)“The sentencing system shall be changed so that reoffending and repeated crime result in stricter sentences”
• tightened consequences of reoffending»Återfall i brott ska lättare leda till utvisning för den som inte är svensk medborgare« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Reoffending shall more easily lead to expulsion for those who are not Swedish citizens”
• international cooperation against crime»I ett samhälle med öppnare gränser krävs också starkare internationell samverkan mot brott.« (party programme ↗)“In a society with more open borders, stronger international cooperation against crime is also required.”

The plan requires that all crime be prosecuted effectively and without exception and that the state oversees that legislation and good ethics are maintained on the market, which speaks for the fact that foreign business bans and breaches could also constitute an independent ground for business bans. The plan also emphasizes cooperation across authority boundaries against international crime development. A functioning market economy presupposes ethically acting actors.

• the state oversees market ethicsdecisive»Statens roll i näringspolitiken är att övervaka att« (party programme ↗)“The state's role in business policy is to oversee that”
• all crime must be prosecuted»Alla brott ska effektivt och utan undantag beivras« (party programme ↗)“All crime shall be effectively and without exception prosecuted”
• cross-border cooperation»krävs ett väl fungerande samarbete över myndighetsgränser« (party programme ↗)“requires good cooperation across authority boundaries”
• ethical conduct in business»effektiv konkurrens, stabila institutioner och etiskt handlande.« (party programme ↗)“effective competition, stable institutions and ethical conduct.”

The plan states that it is a fundamental political responsibility that the rule of law is present with full force when entrepreneurs are subjected to crime, and wants to give authorities strong powers against cross-border crime. Allowing business bans and violations abroad to constitute a separate ground for business bans strengthens exactly that ability. The demand is therefore in line with the plan's crime-fighting commitments.

• rule of law with full forcedecisive»Det är ett grundläggande politiskt ansvar att rättsstaten finns där med sin fulla kraft när företagare blir utsatta för brott.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“It is a fundamental political responsibility that the rule of law stands with its full force when entrepreneurs are subjected to crime.”
• strong tools against cross-border crime»Stärka tullen med mer resurser och kraftfulla befogenheter för att stoppa stöldligor och vapensmugglare« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Strengthen customs with more resources and strong powers to stop theft gangs and arms smugglers”
• combat organized crime»De kriminella klanerna ska bekämpas.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“The criminal clans shall be combated.”

The plan establishes that few actions are too far-reaching when crime should be pushed back and that the justice system's tools for detecting and prosecuting criminals should be improved, as well as that criminality affecting businesses should be combated. That foreign business bans and disregards should also be able to form their own basis for business ban expands precisely such a tool. The plan does not mention business bans, but the direction follows from its commitments.

• forceful action against crimedecisive»Sverigedemokraterna anser att få politiska åtgärder är för långtgående när det kommer till att pressa tillbaka både de kriminella gängen och den kultur som gör att de får fäste.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Sweden Democrats believe that few political actions are too far-reaching when it comes to pushing back both criminal gangs and the culture that makes them gain a foothold.”
• better tools against criminals»Rättsväsendets samverkan mellan myndigheter och verktyg för att upptäcka och lagföra kriminella ska förbättras.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“The justice system's cooperation between authorities and tools for detecting and prosecuting criminals should be improved.”
• protect businesses from crime»Bekämpa brottslighet som drabbar företagare« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Combat criminality affecting businesses”
• combat fraud and corruption»Både fusk och sådana system som tenderar att locka till fusk och korruption ska motverkas.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Both fraud and systems that tend to encourage fraud and corruption must be combated.”
