Ronneby Music Association is required to repay a contribution from the municipality of SEK 80,000. The association is critical of the payment requirement as it will hit the cultural activities hard.

"It's better to get the amount of money we have the right to use than to sit with large debts," says Bosse Johansson, treasurer of the association. "I understand that it will affect the businesses. But in the long run, this is a better way," says Jesper Rehn, vice chairman of the cultural committee.
