All agenda items

The Norra Innerstaden district committee approved the administration's statement in response to a referral from the City Executive Board. The referral concerned a Ministry of Health and Social Affairs proposal to establish a crime-fighting unit within the Swedish Social Insurance Agency to combat benefit fraud, with both investigative and preventative components. The administration was positive about the objective but highlighted risks regarding the handling of sensitive personal data and potential erosion of trust in social services, as information about individuals in need of support might be shared with the new unit.

The Norra innerstaden district council approved the administration's proposal for the 2027 budget, with a focus on 2028 and 2029, including strategic investments, collaborations, and local development needs, forwarding it to the City Executive Board for further preparation. The Moderates, Centre Party, and Liberals reserved their positions, advocating for sharper reforms and efficiencies, while the Sweden Democrats moved to reject the proposal and requested a revised document based on their shadow budget.

The Sweden Democrats highlighted serious, recurring deficiencies in LSS case management in Hässelby-Vällingby, including criticism from the Ombudsman. The administration responded that these issues stem from organizational conditions, work methods, and routines rather than individual errors, and they have since reorganized, introduced mentors and checklists, and plan targeted training to improve processes and ensure LSS compliance.

The Hässelby-Vällingby District Council will address two citizen proposals requesting a new dog park in Smedshagen, Hässelby. The administration suggests the council include this request in ongoing efforts to supplement and more evenly distribute dog parks throughout the district, though a specific proposed location near Rödklövern preschool is deemed unsuitable due to its proximity to homes/the preschool and its secluded nature.

The Hässelby-Vällingby District Council proposes to distribute a total of SEK 311,500 in association grants for environmental and climate work in 2026. Five associations will receive funding: Cykelfrämjandet, Hässelby Scoutkår, Riddersviks 4H, Svensk Eritreanska Förening i Västerort, and Unga Örnar. The funds are intended for initiatives such as promoting cycling, installing an air-source heat pump, developing circular economy activities, increasing recycling knowledge, and organizing environmental and climate camps for children and youth.

The Skarpnäck District Council will consider several citizen proposals, including placing toy boxes with items like buckets and spades in some local playgrounds. Other suggestions involve building an outdoor gym for seniors at Skarpnäcksfältet and improving signage near Flaten and Söderbysjön.

This list covers several upcoming matters, including a citizen proposal to purchase toys for playgrounds. There are also protocol excerpts detailing revised guidelines for out-of-hours care and patient safety reports for LSS camps and healthcare, plus another citizen proposal to open a civic office in Bagarmossen.

The Farsta District Council is to respond to a referral from the City Executive Board regarding a new national activity requirement for individuals receiving social assistance. This requirement, proposed to take effect July 1, 2026, would obligate municipalities to offer activities leading to employment and self-sufficiency. Farsta's administration supports the proposal that the Labor Market Committee be primarily responsible for these activities in Stockholm, aiming for a clearer and more uniform process.

A motion by Sergej Salnikov (SD) proposes that the city investigate establishing more practice driving areas for motorcycles, as the current single location at Älvsjömässan is reportedly overcrowded. The Farsta City District Administration, tasked with commenting on the proposal, stated they have limited knowledge of the matter and no jurisdiction over the relevant areas.

The Skarpnäck District Council is set to review a letter regarding training for ongoing deadly violence (PDV). Three politicians (C, L, M) have inquired about current routines, whether staff have received PDV training, and if council politicians should receive it. The administration responds that routines for threats and violence, including PDV scenarios, are in place and part of a city-wide procurement for PDV training for staff. However, the administration does not consider council politicians a target group for PDV training, though they can provide information on crisis management.

The Skarpnäck District Council is set to discuss the appointment of data protection officers. These officers will ensure the council correctly handles personal data under GDPR and the Criminal Data Act, especially concerning work with the Social Services Act (SoL), the Act on Care of Young Persons (LVU), and the Act on Care of Abusers (LVM). The administration proposes Isabelle Wall be appointed data protection officer for May, and Amanda Johansson for June through August, while the regular officer, Julia Ögren, is absent.

The Skarpnäck District Council is set to review revised routines for Lex Sarah, which concerns reporting and rectifying deficiencies within social services and support for disabled individuals. The aim is to clarify these routines and align them with the delegation order, ensuring that shortcomings are quickly identified and addressed.

The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör District Council is set to review a report on collaborations with non-profit organizations in 2025. The administration assesses these partnerships, including those with Convictus to combat homelessness and with Farsta Parish/Stora Sköndal for recreational activities for young people with disabilities, have functioned well and yielded positive results. The council is proposed to file the report.

A housing plan for eastern Söderort (Enskede-Årsta-Vantör, Skarpnäck, and Farsta) for 2026-2036 will be addressed. The plan proposes a need for a total of 323 new housing units with special services for people with disabilities by 2036. The region also sees a need to develop new types of housing, such as profile housing for specific target groups and first homes for young adults.

The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör District Council will review a report on the follow-up of association grants for the 2025 operating year. The council awarded a total of SEK 935,000 to 30 associations, and the administration has verified that the grants were used correctly. The report indicates overall good compliance, though the administration awaits supplementary information from two associations regarding their accounting.

The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör District Council is set to review a proposed detailed plan for Snösätra Culture Park in Rågsved, aiming to transform the Snösätra storage area into a permanent culture park featuring urban art and cultural activities. While the district administration supports the proposal, it suggests adjusting the opening towards Snösätragränd for improved recreational use, and further investigating funding and responsibility for the area.

The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör District Council will consider a detailed development plan for the Högdalen peaks (Högdalstoppen, Fagersjötoppen, and Hökarängtoppen). This plan designates most of the area as park and natureland, while portions in the Farsta district will become sports facilities and allotments. The administration supports the proposal but suggests more land be allocated for sports and that the Cyklopen cultural center area, across Magelungsvägen, also be included for improved management.

The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district council will consider proposed SL and WÅAB public transport changes for 2026/2027. The Traffic Administration wants to, among other things, modify bus line 144 for direct travel between Örby and Gullmarsplan, and expand bus line 143 with a new express variant, 143X, serving Älvsjö and Högdalen during peak hours. While the district administration welcomes no proposed service reductions and believes new direct lines could decrease car usage, they note a lack of information regarding the reintroduction of bus line 168 between Gullmarsplan and Östberga.

The City Executive Board proposes that Stockholm City introduce digital personnel files for its employees, meaning all current paper files will be scanned and future documents handled digitally. This initiative, supported by the Enskede-Årsta-Vantör District Council, aims to streamline administration, cut costs and transportation, and enhance the security and accessibility of personnel records.

The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör district administration is to respond to a referral concerning new guidelines for child safety in Stockholm's municipal preschools. The administration views the revised guidelines, which aim to strengthen and standardize child safety work with a focus on preventative measures and preparing for serious incidents, positively. However, they propose shortening the introduction and clarifying sections on food handling and police reporting for crimes against children.
