Simona Mohamsson to Be Named Minister for School and Integration

On Saturday, Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson (The Moderate Party) will present the government's new ministers. According to sources to Ekot in Sveriges Radio, The Liberals' newly elected party leader Simona Mohamsson will become minister for school and integration.

Current Minister of Education Lotta Edholm is reported to remain in the government, but with other tasks within the education area.

The portfolio for integration has belonged to the outgoing Minister for Labour Market and Integration Mats Persson (The Liberals), but now such issues are moved away from the Ministry of Labour.

Mohamsson has just taken over from the outgoing Minister of Education Johan Pehrson as party leader for The Liberals.

Kristersson has called a press conference on Saturday at 10. Then the new ministers will also be in place.
