The question of who will pay for the diapers in preschool has been disputed for several years. But after the Supreme Administrative Court chose not to try a dispute between Värmö municipality and a free school, it is clear that it is the municipalities that have to bear the costs.

The opposition in Karlshamn, L, M and KD now wants this to defy the municipality and when the Education Committee meets on Tuesday they will lift an initiative in which they urge the administration not to follow the court's decision.

- First of all, the judgment is not precedent-free, but above all it is completely unreasonable for the municipality to provide free diapers. In a strained economic situation, we may never have to prioritize diapers over educators. Diapers are and will continue to be the responsibility of the custodians, says Emanuel Norén (L) in a press release.
