Government starts investigation into the fire – Swedish Radio

inquiry is to examine various aspects of the fire from the rescue operation to the information given to the public. Reinfeldt tells what the inquiry should be about.

– An investigation is going through information management, which goes through how we should look at this with the aircraft capacity for fire suppression, which goes through how responsibilities have worked.

Rescue Management has received harsh criticism against that action has been too slow, the provincial government should be a concerted effort in the past.

– This is exactly the kind of questions that will be affected, as will the nature of the responsibility to review and what is meant by exceptional wildfire, asks Reinfeldt.

Criticism has also come against the people who lived in the affected areas have not received sufficient information.

– for them, this has not worked, but it is not the same as saying that Sweden does not have the resources and have not gone through how things should work. Then we must say that now raises new questions, said Reinfeldt.
