On Thursday, the government will conclude Anna Kinberg's appointment as governor and head of the county administrative board at its meeting, announces Slottner at a press conference.
The announcement is made against the background of the serious criticism from the Parliamentary Ombudsman.
The damage is irreversible and risks prolonging the confidence crisis for both the governor and the county administrative board. We set high demands on authorities' leaders to follow applicable rules and principles. Two of them are objectivity and impartiality, and they have been deviated from several times, says Erik Slottner.
However, she will retain her employment at the Government Offices until February 2029.
That's how the terms of employment look for state authorities' leaders, says Slottner.
Does that mean she will keep her salary?
We will return to the economic terms.
"Respects the assessment"
"Anna Kinberg Batra respects the government's assessment and currently has no further comments regarding the Minister for Civil Affairs' announcement", writes Jonas Johansson, communications manager at the County Administrative Board in Stockholm, in a written comment.
On Thursday, Kinberg Batra stated that she had no intention of resigning.
Social Democrat Ida Karkiainen, chair of the Constitutional Committee, welcomes the announcement.
"It was about time for the government to take a stand and act. Now, a new governor must restore confidence in this important authority", she says in a written comment.
The Parliamentary Ombudsman Per Lennerbrant directed severe criticism at Kinberg Batra on Thursday regarding three disputed recruitments she made as the new governor in Stockholm.
Determined in advance
According to the Ombudsman's investigation, Kinberg Batra breached the Constitution's requirement of objectivity in all three recruitments. In two cases, she had already determined in advance who would get the job.
That one hand-picks people one has decided on without knowing what other candidates might exist, that's not how our state employment procedure should look, simply, said Lennerbrant to TT.
In the third case, she employed a person despite them not meeting the requirements. According to the Ombudsman, she made that decision despite her colleagues expressing that the person should not be considered for the position and explicitly advising her against it.
In one of the cases, Kinberg Batra was also biased, as she is the godmother of the person's child.
