Committee on Environment and Agriculture

What environmental and climate policy should Sweden conduct? What rules should apply to hunting, forestry, fisheries and animal welfare? How do we monitor the quality of the food that we eat? The Committee on Environment and Agriculture is responsible for these matters. Agriculture, nature conservation and biological diversity are other areas that the members of the Committee work with.

The parliamentary committees prepare decisions

The hub of the work of the Riksdag is the 15 parliamentary committees. This is where the members prepare the Riksdag’s decisions. When a committee has presented its proposal for a decision, all 349 members of the Riksdag adopt a position on the proposal. Each committee is made up of 17 members of the Riksdag. The committees are like a miniature Riksdag, which means that the composition of members in each committee reflects the balance of power in the Riksdag as a whole.
