Government Agencies

Ministries in Sweden are relatively small and merely policy making organizations. Government Agencies independently carry out Government Policy, under the authority of a ministry. However ministries are only allowed to influence Agencies by making policy. Ministers are prohibited of interfering with the day to day operation and the outcome of individual cases. An exception to this are the Legations and Embassies in Foreign countries, which are under the direct authority and integrated with the Ministry for Forreign Affairs.
