On 29 June the Government published draft bills on reforming health and social services and on establishing counties. The main legislative acts governing the reforms are the Counties Act, the Act on Organising Health and Social Services, the Implementation Act and the Act on the Financing of the Counties. 

The health, social services and regional government reform serves to modernise services and to improve the sustainability of general government finances. The reform creates the conditions for a future model for health and social services in Finland.
