Statute overview

About this statute

The duties of the Ministry of Social Affairs and Health’s units are set in the ministry’s work order, in addition to any rules in the Government Decree on Procedure or other legislation. The Ministry is organized into performance units, separate performance groups, and other units as further provided in the Ministry’s work rules. The minister decides matters handled in the ministry. Ministry officials decide other matters, except matters of principle or broad importance, under the ministry’s rules. The minister may take over decision-making in a matter an official would otherwise decide; certain senior officials may do the same in an individual case. A labour-protection unit and the equality ombudsman act independently when carrying out their assigned tasks. The ministry’s work order is issued by the social and health minister; if there is more than one minister, each approves it for their own area. Output units may split into performance groups. This section assigns certain posts and titles within the Ministry.
