The government proposal for the Health, social services and regional government
reform published

The preparation of the Health, social services and regional government reform
proceeds in Finland. The reform includes, among other things, plans to transfer
tasks related to social and healthcare services from municipalities to new
autonomous regions.

After a wide consultation process the Finnish government has published its
proposal to the Parliament on 2 March 2017. The act proposal is now put to
Parliament and its contents may change during the parliamentary process.
Therefore Municipality Finance is not in a position to evaluate the reform's
impact on its operation before the final legislative acts are passed in the
Parliament.

Potentially the reform might have an effect on MuniFin's volumes, but not in
2017. MuniFin is actively following the development of the reform.

The government proposal is available in English at
www.alueuudistus.fi/frontpage.
