The municipality of Lerum states that it accepts the criticism, but does not agree with the assessment that “there is a high risk in relation to other municipalities in terms of the issue of individual assessment and competence”, according to a press release.
Ivo examines 283 municipalities with special accommodation under municipal auspices. The authority is now following up a record review with physical inspections.
