About this statute

The law applies to handling damages claims against the state, but it excludes several specified categories and limits some international-body-based compensation cases to payment from state funds. Statskontoret är behörig myndighet för skadeståndsverksamhet som omfattas av lagen. Statskontoret must let the relevant authority be heard before deciding a damages matter, unless that is clearly unnecessary. Statskontoret must issue a written decision on compensation paid from state funds, may settle compensation with the injured party in some cases, and appeal by complaint is barred. For damages cases handled at the State Treasury, the Administrative Procedure Act applies unless this law says otherwise.
