What's new on Kammarkoll

Riksdag decisions: the latest ones and how the parties voted

• A new page (in Swedish) gathers the Riksdag's latest decisions, newest first, with the result and how each party voted, and the decisions planned for the coming days.
• Every vote now shows a bar for the whole chamber: how many voted for, against, abstained and were absent, with the numbers written out. It shows under the debates too.
• On the decisions page you can pick only votes, a party that voted against, or a committee, and a menu with the days follows along as you read.
• The start page has shortcuts to Riksdag decisions, New laws, New rules and the members, above the latest debates. New laws and New rules are now in the footer too.

Riksdagsbeslut

Question time: when the next one is and what was said last

• The page about question time (in Swedish) now says when it is held and how it goes, and lists the coming ones from the chamber's calendar and the latest here.

Frågestund

New rules searches the laws' own text

• The search on New rules now also reads the text of the acts and ordinances, not just the title. The texts come from the Riksdag's open data, and an amendment is found by what it changes.

New rules

New rules: laws, ordinances and regulations in one place

• A trial: New rules gathers what was just decided or soon comes into force, the Riksdag's laws, the government's ordinances and the regulations of the authorities and the county boards, day by day. The page is in English too; the rules themselves are shown in Swedish.
• The search among the rules understands what a question is about and searches the rules' own text, not just the title, showing the passage where the words are. The rules can be chosen by kind and authority.
• A law leads to its own debate in the Riksdag and how the parties voted. Ordinances and regulations show the Riksdag's debates on the same subject, marked as just that.
• Each rule shows who decided it, when it was issued and when it comes into force, and leads to the authority's own text.
• Parts of older acts and ordinances that come into force later show too, on their day: the municipalities' collection of packaging near homes from 1 January 2027 is there, with the section's text.

New rules

Cleaner search results, and what a watch catches

• The search no longer shows lines such as "STYLEREF Kantrubrik": page headers from the Riksdag's documents that had come along as if someone had said them. There were almost 16,000, among the results in over 1,600 debates.
• Search results from debates a watch on the same question would have mailed are marked, and the link to watch the topic says how many there are.

New laws, and members and debates in a new form

• New laws: every law the Riksdag has decided, by the day it comes into force, with how far each has come and a search among them.
• The fundamental laws have a section of their own: the changes decided and those waiting for the new Riksdag's decision after the election.
• Debates about a law show the law's path, from the government's bill and the Riksdag's decision to the day it comes into force, with links to the bill and the law's text.
• The laws and the latest debates have an icon for their topic, by the committee that prepared the matter.
• Every member has a card with their speeches, debates and votes in numbers, and how often they voted against their party.
• The votes are shown month by month on a timeline.
• The debates have a menu of all the speeches in order, which leads straight to the speaker.
• The page of all members has each party's RSS feed beside the party.
• The page of all members and the RSS feeds come at once, and the debates load as fast when many are reading at the same time.

Sondering, the Speaker and party leader debates explained

• The word sondering, the Speaker's exploratory talks, is now explained in full, with how the talks after the 2026 election have gone.
• The page on the Speaker says who holds the office and how he was elected.
• The page on party leader debates shows when the next one is and links to the latest.

Riksdag words explained (in Swedish)

Corrections, RSS and a faster search

• The Riksdag's corrections are now shown under the speeches, with what changed and when.
• Every member and party has an RSS feed, with the link on the member's page.
• The search is about four times faster, after the move to a larger server.

Everyone who has spoken in the chamber

Watches for organisations

• Organisations can get an email on the days the Riksdag takes up their issues: the debates, the reports on their way to the chamber and the decisions.
• The watches are changed on a page of their own, and colleagues can be invited.

How the watches work (in Swedish)

New speeches every hour

• Kammarkoll now fetches new speeches from the Riksdag every hour, instead of once a day.
• A new debate is in as soon as the Riksdag has published it.

The Riksdag's words explained

• Words such as reservation, approval and division are explained in the Swedish debates: point at or tap the word.
• All the explanations are also gathered on one page.
