County board to take over Dalarna shelter supervision

Dalarna's county administrative board will soon assume supervision of the region's shelters. The new responsibility is expected to increase national inspections from 1,000-2,000 to about 12,000 annually.

The county administrative board in Dalarna will soon take control of the region's shelters. Lars-Håkan Jönsson, head of the department for operational support and civil protection at Länsstyrelsen Dalarna, described it as a major shift.

"It is a big change for us, but above all for society. The ambition is raised from 1,000 to 2,000 inspections to about 12,000 per year nationwide," Jönsson said.

Details remain unclear ahead of the rollout, but more checks are anticipated in the county. The responsibility is transferring from previous bodies to the county boards.
