Background & Purpose
During the autumn of 2025, various members of parliament submitted proposals on how to handle terrorism. These suggestions were brought forward to address concerns about security, human rights, and crime prevention.
Proposals & Debate
The proposals covered a wide range of topics, including how to protect legal rights while fighting terrorism, creating better support programs for individuals wanting to leave extremist groups, and technical solutions like blocking GPS signals. The opposition argued for these changes, while the committee noted that these issues had already been discussed and handled earlier in the current term.
The Decision
The parliament chose to say no to all 23 proposals, meaning no new laws or changes will be implemented based on these specific motions.
Does this affect you?
- Law enforcement agencies: They will continue their work under the current existing laws and guidelines without new directives from these specific motions.
- Civil society organizations: Groups working with deradicalization will not see any new government-funded programs or policy shifts resulting from these proposals.
In Practice
- No new legal changes will be made regarding anti-terrorism strategies.
- Existing programs for people leaving extremist groups will continue as they are today.
- No new regulations or technical requirements regarding GPS jamming will be introduced.
- The current legal framework for handling terrorism-related cases remains unchanged.
