Reading time: 1 min
  • Proposed by: Dansk Folkeparti (13 members, first named: Michael Nedersøe)
  • What is proposed: The proposal calls on the Danish Parliament to require the government to introduce a bill on the flex transport area before the end of the 2026-27 parliamentary year.
  • Who would be affected: The proposal concerns transport operators and the flex transport industry.
  • When: The proposal has not been adopted yet. A proposal for a parliamentary resolution is not an act and does not change the rules by itself. If the Danish Parliament adopts it, it is usually a call on the government to act.

What the proposal says:

  • The government must introduce a bill that gives transport operators a clear responsibility, including for unannounced inspections and chain liability.
  • The bill must contain stricter requirements for the industry on training, language, criminal record, digital control systems and official supervision.
  • The bill must set requirements for the tender model so that weight is placed on quality and orderly conditions rather than the lowest price.

Summary by the Danish Parliament (in Danish)

Forslaget pålægger regeringen at fremsætte et lovforslag, der skal styrke reguleringen og kontrollen på flekstrafikområdet. Der foreslås blandt andet større ansvar til trafikselskaberne, flere uanmeldte kontroller, skærpede krav til chauffører og virksomheder samt bedre muligheder for myndighedskontrol. Derudover skal udbud i højere grad vægte kvalitet og ordnede forhold frem for laveste pris.
