– In many municipalities you are forced to make savings right now, fortunately it is something we do not have to do in Linköping. I am very grateful for that, says municipal councilor Kristina Edlund (S), in a statement.
The municipality expects to have a turnover of SEK 12 billion in 2023. In order to cope with certain cost increases, SEK 400 million must be added to the operations. The governing parties must also make targeted investments of 70 million in care for the elderly, social services and preschools, among other things, M and S write in a press release.
The fact that Linköping does not need to save at present is thanks to a good economy. However, for example, the education administration will review its premises costs.
