– We want SJ to get a concession of fifteen years to run on the new trunk lines when they open, says MP s transport policy spokesperson Karin Svensson Smith.

the party also wants to stop the rate of return from SJ, as they believe that the money should be used for future tåginvesteringar. As late as last fall, the government picked out 1.7 billion from SJ. According to SVT is thus clear that the proposal is MP’s and not the red-green government. Svensson Smith confirms that the proposal has the support

of the Social Democrats.

– To sit in the government is not getting exactly what you want, and we can not get more than what our voter percentage corresponds, she says to Swedish Television News.
