Otto Juote wrote that, in his opinion, the YEL reform would not improve the situation for entrepreneurs during the current government term. He justified his view by saying that the law would not come into effect until 2028 and that it would not apply to any entrepreneur before the parliamentary elections in spring 2027. Juote argued that the timeline was politically intentional: according to him, the National Coalition Party could present itself as the initiator of the reform before the elections while avoiding responsibility for the consequences, which would only begin in the next term. He suspected that a blue-red government formed after the elections could annul or postpone the reform and anticipated that the SDP would demand its cancellation. Juote noted that no invoices based on the new model had yet been sent, nor had implementation decisions been made. According to him, the new parliament could repeal the law or postpone its entry into force with a simple legislative amendment, allowing the practices of the 2023 model to continue. He also questioned the information systems as an official basis for a delay extending to 2028 and assessed that the postponement would give the National Coalition Party the opportunity to leave the implementation of the reform to the next government. Juote claimed that the National Coalition Party did not want to reform YEL during any government term. #YEL #politiikka #uudistus (translated)
