All proposals for parliamentary resolutions by Liberal Alliance

In short

Reading time: 1 min
  • Proposed by: Liberal Alliance (Katrine Daugaard, Alex Vanopslagh and Pernille Vermund)
  • What is proposed:
    • The proposal calls on the Danish Parliament to require the government to introduce a bill on the social free-card in 2027.
    • The free-card should also cover flexible forms of work, such as platform-based work.
  • Who would be affected: The proposal concerns vulnerable and disadvantaged citizens with limited attachment to the labour market, who may be eligible for a social free-card. The target group should be clarified, so it is clearer that citizens with a very limited, fluctuating or unpredictable work capacity can also be included.
  • 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 scheme must also cover new, flexible forms of work, including platform-based work.
  • The target group must be made clearer, so that citizens with a very limited, fluctuating or unpredictable work capacity can also be covered.

Forslaget skal sikre, at ordningen med det sociale frikort udvides til at omfatte nye fleksible arbejdsformer, herunder platformsarbejde, og målgruppen tydeliggøres, så borgere med meget begrænset, svingende eller uforudsigelig arbejdsevne kan omfattes.
