  • The reduction obligation has driven up prices

    The reduction obligation can contribute to Sweden reaching its climate goals, according to a new review by the National Audit Office.

    They have reviewed the law as it stands today – that it will be increased annually until 2030.

    But according to the National Audit Office, this is not possible.

    In a few years’ time, it will not be possible to mix in as much biofuel as the reduction obligation prescribes, says audit director Peter Jörgensen to TT.

    The Tidö parties have wanted to lower the reduction obligation from 7.8 percent for gasoline and 30.5 percent for diesel to 6 percent for both.

    New report: Women’s earnings more than 20 percent lower than men’s

    A new report from the state Mediation Institute shows that lower wages combined with shorter working hours mean that women’s incomes are more than 20 percent lower than men’s, reports Sveriges Radio.

    – Development has gone in the right direction, but rather slowly. One explanation is that we have had an elite who have received ever higher capital income. That elite is above all male and that slows down development, says Irene Vennemo, director general at the Mediation Institute, to Ekot.

    The report also shows that social insurance, contributions and taxes increase gender equality. But pensions are more unequal than earnings.
