On 15 April 2015 the Swedish Government presented to Parliament its proposed Spring 2015 Budget to balance increased spending on education and welfare with tax rises of around SKR8bn (USD930m) this year.
The Government is proposing tax hikes that are intended to ensure that increases in government spending are offset by revenue-raising measures. For example, it will reverse, either wholly or in part, the cuts in employer payroll taxes implemented by the previous conservative governments.
