Vad innebär det att en kommun ingår i ett förvaltningsområde för ett minoritetsspråk?
What does it mean that a municipality is part of an administrative area for a minority language?
Correct answer: That the language may be used with the municipality
Residents have the right to use the language in contact with the municipality and to receive preschool and elderly care in it. Administrative areas exist for Finnish, Meänkieli and Sami, and the rights follow from the Act on National Minorities and Minority Languages.
