On Wednesday, Member of the Riksdag Jörgen Hellman (S) left all his political assignments after the Assignment review's disclosure of his housing situation.
Hellman has received the equivalent of SEK 700,000 in compensation because his home is more than 50 km from the Riksdag.
It entitles him to both an overnight apartment and a subsistence allowance.
However, the review shows that the house in Vänersborg that Hellman stated as the population registration address, among other things, lacks a drain.
Member of Parliament Kristina Bouveng (M) has also received benefits in the form of an overnight apartment and allowances as she is registered in a house in Vetlanda which is owned by her brother.
This despite the fact that in other contexts she has stated that she lives permanently in a house on Värmdö, 3.5 km from the Riksdag, where her boyfriend and daughter are also written.
Investigates any errors
The Riksdag administration is now announcing that it is looking into the matters.
"We will investigate whether the current regulations have not been followed in any respect," the unit for member compensation writes in an email to SVT.
According to current regulations, the Riksdag administration cannot demand back compensation from members.
However, new rules come into force on 1 July, which opens up the possibility of recovery, but they only apply forward and cannot be applied backwards in time.
Damages trust
Both Jörgen Hellman and Helena Bouveng believe that they have acted within current regulations.
"I have not obtained any compensation, I am not entitled to.
On the other hand, I realize that this damages confidence in me as an elected representative and above all it risks damaging my party ", Hellman writes in a comment on Facebook in connection with the resignation.
Helena Bouveng maintains that her permanent residence is in Vetlanda.
The Moderates' group leader Tobias Billström tells SVT that the party's assessment is that she has followed the current regulations.
