Riktlinjer för handläggningen av ekonomiskt bistånd

The Södermalm District Council is to provide an opinion on a proposal from the City Executive Board regarding new guidelines for financial assistance in Stockholm. These new, less comprehensive guidelines focus on aspects unique to Stockholm, as national legislation and practice already cover much ground. The proposal includes provisions such as not counting habilitation and apprentice allowances as income when calculating assistance, and introducing a special summer holiday allowance for children in families receiving long-term financial aid.
