Criminal gangs and welfare crime must be stopped by removing privacy barriers. It is proposed in the new partial report that is handed over to Minister of Justice Gunnar Strömmer (M).
The investigation proposes that a new general non-confidential provision be introduced. In other words, secrecy around an individual’s personal or financial circumstances should not put an end to information being provided between authorities.
The exchange of data must be possible if it can contribute to discovering or investigating incorrect payments or to investigating and countering criminal activity.
According to Minister of Justice Gunnar Strömmer, there is a great need for a change.
The changes to the law are proposed to enter into force on 1 September 2025.
Farm chips may continue with the sale of parmesan chips. Archive image. Photo: Christine Olsson/TT
Laholm’s municipality changes its mind and upholds the ban for För Gårdschips to market and sell parmesan chips, writes Göteborgs-Posten.
During a customary food inspection last week, the chip manufacturer lacked permission to sell products with the name parmesan, which now has a protected designation of origin within the EU. But it turned out that the Swedish Food Agency has no system for notifying parmesan in particular, and therefore no license is needed to sell the product.
– Then the business cannot follow our decision. Therefore, we have chosen to cancel our decision, says the municipality’s environmental manager Annica Hegefeldt.
After the municipality’s first decision to ban the sale of the chips, Gårdschips stated that it intended to continue selling bags labeled Parmesan chips, despite the municipality’s threat of a fine of SEK 5,000 per bag.

An 18-year-old man has been detained as a suspect for attempted murder and a serious offense against the Act on Flammable and Explosive Goods.

Last Thursday, the national bomb protection defused two suspected dangerous objects in the Rosengård district of Malmö. The 18-year-old was arrested during the night of Friday.
– In short, it is a person from the public who says that there is some type of suspicious object. When the police get there, they point out the person who left this object, says prosecutor Adrien Combier-Hogg.
Erik Åberg, head of the local police area south in Malmö, has previously told TT that it is about hand grenades.
– Findings from the locations mean that our assessment is that hand grenades are involved in all cases. That assessment is subject to change.
Combier-Hogg does not want to comment on the information, but states that it concerns explosive goods.
