Till följd av ökat dödligt våld vid konflikter i den kriminella miljön har regeringen i samarbete med Sverigedemokraterna presenterat Tidöavtalet, som tillsammans med andra åtgärder förespråkar hårdare tag för att bekämpa den gängrelaterade brottsligheten.

Tramways are a sustainable and accessible mode for public transport. They promote urban development and contribute to a more attractive city.

För att generalklausulen i den svenska lagstiftningen mot skatteflykt ska kunna tillämpas krävs det att skatteförmånen som uppstår strider mot lagstiftningens syfte. Vad detta innebär är inte fullständigt klarlagt av vare sig lagstiftaren eller av Högsta förvaltningsdomstolen. Lagens syftar till att domstolen ska göra en analog tolkning och dess rättssäkerhet har därför varit omdiskuterad. Syftet
