Inga ändringar av helgdagar och flaggregler

Official title: Allmänna helgdagar m.m.

Riksdagen har avslagit flera motionsförslag om att ändra allmänna helgdagar, minnesdagar och regler för flaggning. Det innebär att rådande lagstiftning ligger fast och första maj förblir en röd dag.

In brief

What the Riksdag decided

Beslutet innebär att det inte görs några ändringar i lagen om allmänna helgdagar eller i förordningen om allmänna flaggdagar. Riksdagen sade nej till förslag om att ta bort första maj som helgdag, att införa nya minnesdagar för bland annat kommunismens offer och blåljuspersonal, samt att utreda skånska flaggans officiella status. Statliga myndigheter får även i fortsättningen själva avgöra sin flaggning i stället för att styras av en ny, samlad flagglag.

What was contested

SD stod bakom reservationer och ville avskaffa första maj som helgdag samt införa en ny flagglag som styr myndigheters flaggning. Övriga partier (S, M, C, V, KD, L, MP) röstade emot förslagen med hänvisning till att nuvarande regelverk är väl avvägt.
