Background & Purpose

During the autumn of 2025, opposition parties submitted many suggestions on how to improve social services, including how to handle homelessness and international adoptions. The parliament determined that these areas are already being addressed through ongoing work.

The Decision

The parliament voted to reject all 101 proposals, meaning that no new laws or changes to social service operations were introduced.

Does this affect you?

  • Social service employees: They will continue their daily work according to existing regulations without any new directives from these specific motions.
  • Individuals receiving social support: The support and services provided to them remain governed by current laws and existing local policies.

In Practice

  • Current rules and guidelines for social services remain unchanged.
  • No new government initiatives were launched as a result of these specific motions.
  • The ongoing work already planned by the government and authorities continues as before.
