Per Rosencrantz (M) questions Stockholm's growing debt, nearing SEK 100 billion, particularly criticizing the proposal for Familjebostäder to borrow over a billion to acquire AB Hjulstahem.

Rosencrantz asks what benefit the acquisition provides Stockholmers and when the Social Democrats plan to stop borrowing given rapidly rising interest rates.

Per Rosencrantz (M) questioned Emilia Bjuggren (S), Commissioner for Education, Labor Market, and HR, about the Social Democrats' integration policy of "mixing the population" to combat segregation, asking how this would be implemented, if it meant densification of villa areas, and its impact on individual choice given high rents in new municipal housing. Bjuggren (S) responded that the policy aims for equal opportunities and to counteract segregation by addressing overcrowding and increasing housing construction, citing ongoing work in Järva and southern Stockholm with investments in schools, housing, and safety, and existing efforts to build townhouses in high-rise areas for mixed development.
