"I don't think it's a good idea," investigator Anders Hagsgård said at a press conference.

He believes there is no need for a new arrangement, but that it could lead to incorrect care and increase distrust of the Act on the Care of Young People (LVU).

Minister of Social Services Camilla Waltersson Grönvall (M) does not want to announce how the government intends to proceed before the investigation has been analyzed.

The investigation has looked at the entire LVU. Among other things, the government commissioned a proposal that would mean that not only the social welfare committee, but also prosecutors, should be able to make decisions about immediate care - for example, if a child has a close connection to gang crime.
