An investigation into politicians in Ronneby, Sweden, who are considered to have received excessively high fees is complete. 2 million kronor too much and may now be liable for repayment. The sums in the investigation, which reviewed the years 2019-2025, range from a few thousand kronor to over 220,000 kronor.
1 million kronor too much in fees, prompting the municipality to review how all politicians interpreted the compensation regulations. The investigation has previously faced strong criticism from members who believe they followed the compensation regulations but that it has now been reinterpreted, and that the investigation is being conducted as a kind of revenge action after the infected conflict in the Moderate Party. The final decision on how the municipality proceeds with any repayment demands is expected to be made at the municipal board meeting on April 14.
