– We’ve seen the back of the system where you actually bring people here, who may be a friend or something else, simply through a cheat work permit, says Boel Godner in Ekot’s Saturday interview.
Organized crime in Södertälje appears to target welfare systems. Several major incidents of cheating have been revealed in home care and personal assistance.
Through stricter controls and home visits, the municipality has also managed to cut its maintenance support payments in half in recent years.
A zone where Södertälje sees that today’s main problems are the rules for labor immigration, which give criminals the opportunity to sell fake work permits to people who then get black leases when they come here.
– We can see how villas and properties are bought in Södertälje, where there is a large turnover of those who live there. No one who lives there is registered in that apartment. We have found villas and townhouses that have been converted into several apartments where people also settle. Then they come to us and apply for grants and then we find out all the background.
Boel Godner welcomes the government’s announcement of a new population and housing census in vulnerable areas. But she wants all of Södertälje to be included.
– I think you will discover many things. It is very important, I do not mean tens or hundreds, but there may be thousands of people who do not live where they are registered.
