Quickly decision surplus sawed – Swedish newspaper Svenska Dagbladet

Finance Magdalena Andersson (S) appreciates the support of an investigation but sees no need for a parliamentary committee. She is supported by the Prime Minister.

– The mission of CIs will not unravel, it will be completed. There have been reviewed previously and we take this further, says Löfven to TT during a visit to his Polish colleague in Warsaw and dismisses the claim from Alliance parties’ economic policy spokespersons of a broad investigation with representatives from all parties in parliament.

He would not say whether the government is already in the autumn budget intends to propose that the surplus target will be abolished.

– We have a thing no other view than that the surplus target is important and it should be maintained. But we can well imagine that, almost two decades after its introduction, do a proper analysis of the implications and future needs we will have to see if there are any reasons for revisions, says Ulf Krister Andersson (M).

According to Krister Andersson, there are subtle differences within the Alliance regarding the perception of the surplus target.

– But we are totally agree that it shall be done any revisions shall there be after a much more thorough examination than the government currently undertaking.

Krister’s colleague in the Liberal Party, Erik Ullenhag, see an opening to revise surplus target – but want to do it in peace.

– I am surprised that the government makes it so very suddenly and seem to want to make it a little sloppy.

Finance Magdalena Andersson (S) interprets debate article in Dagens Nyheter that the bourgeois parties joining forces in order to allow the investigation of the surplus target. To appoint a parliamentary committee would mean also involved SD, which Andersson did not think needed.

– to allow NIER be tasked to conduct an analysis, I do not like sloppy but as serious, says Andersson.

The Left Party’s economic policy spokesperson Ulla Andersson think the opening lead is primarily a way to “save face on the Moderates.”

According to her, a backtracked goals mean that approximately 35 billion was released a year – money as V believes are needed in schools and health care.
