- Inquiry on the Environmental Objectives System
Summary
The proposals put forward by the Inquiry give a clearer international perspective to Sweden's system of environmental objectives. They define more precisely the role of the Riksdag (the Swedish Parliament), the Government and government agencies in bringing about the changes in society that need to occur within a generation. The importance of day-to-day efforts in the environmental field, by government agencies, local authorities, companies and others, is underlined.
