Sweden's Migration Minister Johan Forssell announced an inquiry aimed at establishing criteria for revoking residence permits based on bristande vandel, a term that implies flawed conduct. The inquiry supports the notion that although most newcomers are honest, those guilty of crime or misconduct should not remain. Examples of misbehavior include benefits fraud and refusing rehabilitation for substance abuse. The inquiry leaves specific determinations to authorities and courts, allowing potential revocation for false permit information and public order threats as well as other behavioral issues.
"Most people who come to Sweden are completely honest...an important fundamental principle is that those who commit crimes and misbehave should not be here."
"The inquiry stopped short of proposing a list of what could constitute bristande vandel, leaving it up to the migration authorities and court to make an overall assessment."
