Tiivistelmä
This is the fourth updated action plan of Prime Minister Sipilä’s Government. The action plan contains a summary of the central achievements of key projects and reforms as well as actions for the remainder of the government term and the new openings decided by the Government in its mid-term review in spring 2017.
The Government has regularly assessed key project and reform implementation throughout the government term at its strategy sessions and, where necessary, made decisions on new actions required to achieve the objectives. In the Government’s spending limits discussion in spring 2018, decisions on new measures were made, especially concerning employment, the availability of skilled labour, facilitating lifewide learning, social justice, housing policy, support for the regional government and health and social services reform implementation as well as continuing the efforts to cut public sector costs. The Government additionally made decisions on launching new, high-impact deregulation measures. This document contains the most important measures complementing the Government’s key projects and reforms.
This action plan specifies the main milestones in the implementation of the key projects and reforms. It is a programme for change to which the Government is strongly committed. This document does not cover the full contents of the Government Programme. It provides an overview of the most essential measures promoting key projects and reforms that will give momentum to the change needed to achieve the Government’s vision.
The Government oversees key project implementation at its regular strategy sessions. A minister responsible for implementation has been designated for each key project and a ministerial working group has been appointed for each strategic priority. Documents that show the progress made in implementing the action plan are available on the Government website at vn.fi.
