The party wants to save around 70 billion kronor through a stricter work policy, streamlined bureaucracy and less subsidy fraud.
Bureaucracy can't cost as much as it does - it has to come down in price, says Svantesson.
Savings in the state agencies' administrative appropriations, a waste commission and more efficient procurement will save a total of 40 billion kronor, according to the Moderate Party's proposal.
“Strict work line”
What the party calls a "tightened labour line" will save 21 billion kronor, partly through reduced structural unemployment, lower taxes on labour and adjustments to unemployment insurance.
"We have presented election promises worth 68 billion kronor. We have coverage for what we promise," says Svantesson.
At the same time, the party wants to save 10 billion kronor through less subsidy fraud.
"We have given the authorities a lot of tools that they have been actively working with. The tools are in place and now we can take the money back," says Svantesson.
In addition to the aforementioned savings of a total of around 70 billion kronor, the party wants to reprioritise aid to welfare and defence.
We need to shift some of the aid to Sweden and do what is needed here at home to build Sweden, she says.
“Agree on a lot”
The question is how the party will get its proposals through in negotiations with other parties.
We are four parties that agree on a lot more than the other side, especially about what is good for Sweden. To push back crime, ensure that we build up the defence and that people get more money in their wallets.
I understand that I won't get everything done, but I will get a lot done. Because I'm good at it, says the finance minister.
