SD and L want state-run personal assistance and higher compensation

The party leaders present five joint election promises to strengthen personal assistance on Expressen's debate page.

"Personal assistance has been eroded today," the two party leaders write.

To strengthen the Support and Service Act, LSS, they want to increase the assistance allowance by 7 percent and then raise the allowance in line with annual cost increases.

To make assessments of the need for assistance legally secure, SD and L want personal assistance nationalised and for the Social Insurance Agency to take over responsibility.
