Evaluation

The party programme demands that proposals prove to be effective and fair when they are implemented and that politics is based on solid knowledge, which speaks for setting an evaluation time now. The plan moreover makes protection of personal integrity a right and demands citizen transparency and independent review, which is exactly the balance the counter-proposal wants to monitor. The substantive requirement therefore has support.

• laws must prove effectivedecisive»förslag som visar sig effektiva och rättvisa den dag de genomförs.« (party programme ↗)“proposals that prove to be effective and fair the day they are implemented.”
• protection of personal integrity»rätt till skydd av sin personliga integritet« (party programme ↗)“right to protection of personal integrity”
• transparency and independent review»Rättssäkerheten behöver upprätthållas genom rättshjälp, medborgerlig« (party programme ↗)“Legal certainty needs to be maintained through legal aid, citizen”
• policy based on solid knowledge»rörelse för ett bättre samhälle behöver bygga på stabil forskning och« (party programme ↗)“movement for a better society needs to be based on solid research and”

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 party programme makes it an absolute duty of society to protect freedom and personal integrity and requires that administration be based on openness and transparency. To already now determine a time to evaluate the new camera surveillance law is one way to ensure that the balance between crime prevention and integrity actually holds. The election manifesto's commitment to more tools for the police speaks for the rules to exist, but not against monitoring them.

The plan requires that policy protects privacy as surveillance possibilities increase and opposes laws with disproportionate privacy intrusions. A set date for evaluation is one way to test whether the new camera surveillance legislation truly balances crime prevention against privacy in a responsible way. The plan also establishes that citizens should always be able to scrutinize power.

• no disproportionate privacy intrusionsdecisive»Vi motsätter oss alla lagar som innebär oproportionerliga ingrepp i integriteten.« (party programme ↗)“We oppose all laws that entail disproportionate intrusions into privacy.”
• protect privacy against surveillance»De ökade möjligheterna till övervakning kräver att politiken slår vakt om människors möjlighet att värna sin integritet.« (party programme ↗)“Increased surveillance possibilities require that policy protects people's ability to safeguard their privacy.”
• rights before crime prevention»Brotts- och terrorbekämpning är viktigt men ska inte ske på bekostnad av mänskliga rättigheter.« (party programme ↗)“Crime and counterterrorism are important but should not be at the expense of human rights.”
• scrutiny of power»Medborgarna ska alltid kunna granska makten.« (party programme ↗)“Citizens should always be able to scrutinize power.”

The party programme requires that all legislation be tested against its impact on personal integrity and that any restrictions be proportionate to the purpose, and the election manifesto wants to defend the rule of law and increase transparency. A predetermined time for evaluating the new video surveillance law is precisely such a review of the balance between crime prevention and privacy.

• privacy review of legislationweak support»All lagstiftning bör prövas mot dess påverkan på människors personliga integritet.« (party programme ↗)“All legislation should be tested against its impact on people's personal integrity.”
• proportionality requirementdecisive»Det måste finnas en proportionalitet mellan lagstiftningens inskränkning av medborgarnas integritet och lagarnas syfte.« (party programme ↗)“There must be proportionality between the law's restriction of citizens' privacy and the law's purpose.”
• rule of law protection of the individual»Rättsstaten och individens rättigheter gentemot staten måste försvaras.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“The rule of law and the individual's rights against the state must be defended.”
• increased transparency»Sverige ska bli ännu mer transparent.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Sweden shall become even more transparent.”

The plan explicitly demands that already-adopted laws with strong impact on personal integrity are regularly evaluated and that all new legislative proposals are analyzed from an integrity perspective. New legislation on camera surveillance is precisely such a law. Setting a time for evaluation does not conflict with the plan's will to simplify camera surveillance, but is the control the plan demands as a counterweight.

• regular evaluation of integrity lawsdecisive»Redan införda lagar med stark påverkan på den personliga integriteten ska regelbundet utvärderas.« (party programme ↗)“Already-adopted laws with strong impact on personal integrity shall be regularly evaluated.”
• integrity analysis of proposals»Alla nya lagförslag ska analyseras ur integritetssynpunkt.« (party programme ↗)“All new legislative proposals shall be analyzed from an integrity perspective.”
• simplified camera surveillance»Möjligheten till kamerabevakning på offentlig plats ska förenklas.« (party programme ↗)“The possibility for camera surveillance in public places shall be simplified.”
• clear supervision and responsibility»Tydliga regler ska finnas om tillsyn och ansvar.« (party programme ↗)“Clear rules shall exist for supervision and responsibility.”

The plan makes evaluation, cost monitoring and quality control explicit political tasks, and simultaneously requires strong protection for personal integrity and great caution when handling personal data. The counter-proposal's requirement that an evaluation time be determined now is precisely the balance between crime prevention and privacy that the plan presupposes. The plan thus also concerns the committee's reasons for not setting any time period.

• evaluation is political taskdecisive»Utvärdering, kostnadsuppföljning och kvalitetskontroll är därför viktiga politiska« (party programme ↗)“Evaluation, cost monitoring and quality control are therefore important political”
• strong integrity protection»Den personliga integriteten ska ha ett starkt« (party programme ↗)“Personal integrity shall have strong”
• caution with personal data»försiktighet och respekt för den personliga integriteten« (party programme ↗)“caution and respect for personal integrity”
• effective crime prevention»Total översyn av sekretessreglerna, så att myndigheter kan dela uppgifter mellan sig för att förebygga och klara upp brott.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Total review of secrecy rules, so that authorities can share information with each other to prevent and solve crimes.”

The plan states that the party must constantly have the ability to evaluate, reconsider and improve what has been implemented and that reforms should be based on research and proven experience. To now establish a time for evaluation of the new camera surveillance law is precisely such an arrangement, and it also responds to the plan's requirement that personal integrity be protected alongside expanded camera surveillance. The requirement is supported.

• evaluate implemented reformsdecisive»beredskap för att utvärdera, ompröva, förändra och förbättra« (party programme ↗)“readiness to evaluate, reconsider, change and improve”
• protected personal integrity»Den personliga integriteten ska värnas« (party programme ↗)“Personal integrity shall be protected”
• more surveillance cameras»Kraftigt öka antalet övervakningskameror« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Significantly increase the number of surveillance cameras”

The election manifesto requires clear results for every public investment and wants to strengthen possibilities for accountability when public resources are managed poorly, which speaks for establishing a time for evaluation. The plan at the same time pushes for expanded camera surveillance, so an evaluation does not question the tool but follows up whether the rules have the intended effect. The support is derived, as the plan does not state anything about evaluation timeframes.

• results requirements and evaluationdecisive»Begära tydliga resultat för varje offentlig satsning« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Demand clear results for every public investment”
• accountability»Sverigedemokraterna vill stärka möjligheter för ansvarsutkrävande när hanteringen av de offentliga resurserna brister.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Sweden Democrats want to strengthen possibilities for accountability when the management of public resources fails.”
• expanded camera surveillance»Åtgärder ska vidtas för att bättre kunna kartlägga gängaktiva genom t.ex. underrättelsearbete och informationsinhämtning, spaning, kameraövervakning och avlyssning.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Measures should be taken to better map gang members through, for example, intelligence work and information gathering, surveillance, camera surveillance and wiretapping.”
