The Government has therefore gathered at Harpsund, where lunch is now under way. Before a press conference on the economic situation met quickly press.

Last Sunday painted Stefan Löfven up a troubled world – war, terrorism, crisis – with the S-responsible policy in Sweden. The envelope he continued in Harpsund, when he lamented the earthquake in Italy.

– A day like this, I want to express our sorrow about the incident south of Perugia with dead and dead in the numbers that we unfortunately expect to soar further.

According Löfven is Sweden prepared that if Italy wants, send resources through the Agency for Social Preparedness.

Finance Minister Magdalena Andersson concluded before the date on Harpsund government is on the Sörmland mansion to discuss the upcoming budget whose name was revealed as “community-building – responsibility for Sweden”.

Magdalena as before likened the Swedish economy in powerful fast cars, did not immediately respond to that which car economy right now feels like. It is clear that GDP growth will slow down a bit.

– We can take later. But it is clear that this government has pursued a tight fiscal policy and taken responsibility for state finances. We have reversed the trend of ever-increasing deficits to a far better development, says Magdalena Andersson.

According to the Minister of Finance is the cooperation good too with the Left, because they have to support the budget, by being a bargaining agent to some extent.

Bright sunshine today, but the dark clouds, you see, Stefan Löfven?

– I do not see any dark clouds, but we have societal challenges. We invest in a social structure that we have started for real, responsible Löfven, which emphasizes knowledge in school, the climate and welfare “to be found when it is needed,” replied the Prime Minister.

Magdalena Andersson says that she is very glad that there is a bloc agreement on the fiscal framework, for example, 0.33 percent budget surplus over the cycle.

Also Per Bolund, finance Minister, could respond to a question:

How important is it that the MP gets through something that shows that you still needed in Swedish politics?

– the important thing is that we show that the government shows that it takes all of all the issues seriously we need to take seriously, answers Per Bolund, who also mentions school results, as well as jobs and Sweden becoming a role model in environmental matters, which means that “Sweden is a fossil free country,” said Bolund.

the press conference about the state of the economy will take until at 15 o’clock when the Finance Minister Magdalena Andersson will present the Government’s assessment of the economy, which of course is the basis for the scope for reform when the autumn budget now being developed.

in the beginning of the year steamed Swedish GDP growth of around 4 percent, but in July the new forecasts of slower growth, the Riksbank’s main scenario, down 2 percent next year. In July, it was said from the Riksbank to “The Swedish economy continues to strengthen, but uncertainty about the economic development is large and has increased as a result of the outcome of the British referendum on the EU”.

The state budget which traditionally discussed at Harpsund, consists 27 different expenditure areas with approximately 650 grants. On the expenditure side, there are such expenditure of all authorities and the different types of transfers, as sickness and unemployment insurance. It is about the vast sums of money that the government can converse in Harpsund, where the evening is crowned with a crayfish party.

Full-year 2015 amounted government budget expenditure to 892 billion.

government meeting on Harpsund is the classic run-up to the autumn budget. While usually the opposition flag up their options, such Moderates took place on Tuesday whether to bring more foreign-born women in the workplace through four months less parental benefit if you have not worked enough.

It is also a very beautiful summer environment that Swedish Prime Minister has access to a few mil from Flen. The manor house dating from the Middle Ages located at Harpsund Sea. Harpsund donated in the early 1950s as “recreational residence” for the Prime Minister of Sweden. Thus it is an official supplement to the residence Sager House. Tage Erlander hesitated a long time about what he perceived as a place of “upper class habits.”

But in Swedish politics has become Harpsund place for informal consultations. Rowing Harpsund Ekan with peaks from abroad is also a classic, but it is not relevant today as then “just government” has prelude to the fall.
