Reforming and standardising disability servicesHE 191/2022 vpVärderade talman! Förra fredagen fick vi i social- och hälsovårdsutskottet äntligen klart vårt betänkande över förslaget till ny funktionshinderservicelag.

Supplementary budget for 2023HE 325/2022 vpVärderade talman! Regeringens tilläggsbudget på en halv miljard euro för de nya välfärdsområdena är en välkommen hjälp och ger områdena lite bättre resurser att få i gång sin verksamhet. Många av välfärdsområdena kämpar med att få finansieringen att räcka till, och nu planeras både indragningar och försämringar i de…

Finland's accession to NATOHE 315/2022 vpVärderade talman, arvoisa puhemies! Finland håller nu på att ta ett viktigt och avgörande steg för att förstärka vår säkerhet och självständighet.

Speeding up access to primary healthcareHE 74/2022 vpArvoisa puhemies, värderade talman! En försnabbad tillgång till vård är utan tvekan en efterlängtad reform som förebygger ett större vårdbehov, minskar på behovet av dyr specialvård och som bättre än i dag tryggar grundlagens krav på tillräckliga social- och hälsovårdstjänster. Det är ändå omöjligt att ignorera den…

Central government budget for 2023HE 154/2022 vpArvoisa puhemies, värderade talman! Våld mot kvinnor är ett av Finlands största människorättsproblem.
