With current legislation, the government can regulate what is a public gathering or public event, such as demonstrations, concerts and sports, DN states.
- It is complicated legislation that must be handled carefully because it borders on constitutionally protected freedom, says Minister of Social Affairs Lena Hallengren (S) to the newspaper.
She "hopes" that the legislation can be in place by the summer of 2021.
More than 50
On September 30, the Center Party wrote in DN debate that they wanted to see a new pandemic law.
They believe that a law based on the ability of businesses to avoid congestion is needed.
Then sports and cultural events can receive more visitors than the 50 allowed, while other activities would have other conditions, according to C.
The government will also investigate a long-term law that can be applied in future pandemics, DN states.
Minister of Social Affairs Lena Hallengren (S) will participate in SVT's Aktuellt at 9 pm tonight.
The Public Health Agency's press department tells SVT that they refuse to comment on the information.
