Background & Purpose

During the autumn of 2025, members of parliament submitted many suggestions on how to make life easier for companies, such as speeding up permit processes. These proposals were debated because many feel that current rules are too complicated and slow.

The Decision

The parliament voted to say no to all 55 proposals, choosing instead to rely on the work that the government is already doing in this area.

Does this affect you?

  • Small business owners: They will continue to follow the existing administrative rules and permit processes without the changes suggested in the motions.
  • Entrepreneurs: They will not experience any new, simplified contact methods with government authorities as a result of this decision.

In Practice

  • No new laws or regulations will be introduced as a result of these specific proposals.
  • The current rules for how businesses interact with government agencies remain unchanged.
  • Existing government projects to simplify rules will continue as planned without new parliamentary instructions.
  • Businesses will not see any immediate changes to permit processes or hand-over times.
