Background & Purpose

The Committee on the Constitution (KU) performs an annual review to ensure the government follows rules and acts properly, based on complaints from Members of Parliament.

Proposals & Debate

The Committee on the Constitution (KU) reviewed 29 complaints from Members of Parliament about how the government interacts with the Riksdag, handles its affairs, and how ministers perform their duties. The committee's report detailed its findings, and the debate in parliament discussed these findings.

The Decision

The Swedish Parliament decided to formally conclude the matter after debating the Committee on the Constitution's review report, meaning no further action was taken on the complaints.

  • The 29 complaints from Members of Parliament have been formally addressed and closed.
