- Abstract (Swedish)
- I de fall samhället behöver ingripa för att tillförsäkra den unge en trygg uppväxt och goda levnadsförhållanden, ska det i första hand ske med hjälp av socialnämndens frivilliga insatser i samförstånd med den unges vårdnadshavare, och i vissa fall, den unge själv. Vid avsaknad av samtycke till frivilliga insatser kan tvångsvård i andra hand ges med stöd av lag (1990:52) med särskilda bestämmelser om vård av unga (LVU).
För att tvångsvård med stöd av 3 § första stycket LVU ska kunna ges den unge måste vissa förutsättningar vara uppfyllda: avsaknad av samtycke till frivilliga insatser och förekomsten av ett kvalificerat vårdbehov som är en följd av den unges eget beteende – de s.k. beteendefallen. Beteendefallen innebär att den unge...

För att tvångsvård med stöd av 3 § första stycket LVU ska kunna ges den unge måste vissa förutsättningar vara uppfyllda: avsaknad av samtycke till frivilliga insatser och förekomsten av ett kvalificerat vårdbehov som är en följd av den unges eget beteende – de s.k. beteendefallen. Beteendefallen innebär att den unge missbrukar beroendeframkallande medel, bedriver brottslig verksamhet eller har ett annat socialt nedbrytande beteende. Rekvisitet ”annat socialt nedbrytande beteende” betyder, enligt förarbetena, att den unge avviker från samhällets grundläggande normer genom att exempelvis uppträda på sexklubb eller prostituera sig. I rättsfallet RÅ 2000 ref. 33 har HFD konstaterat att rekvisitet kan omfatta andra än de i förarbetena nämnda beteenden. HFD har i en rad olika rättsfall konstaterat vilka beteenden som inryms och inte inryms i rekvisitet: symtom på ett psykiskt funktionshinder inryms inte i rekvisitet. Inte heller röjande av vistelseort eller misskötsel av livsviktig medicinering inryms. Det gör däremot aggressivt beteende och totalt avskärmande från familjen och samhället.
I kammarrättspraxis har konstaterats att den unges sexuella beteende kan utgöra ett socialt nedbrytande beteende. Av de kammarrättsfall som har studerats i denna uppsats framkom att kombinationen av den unges andra beteenden tillsammans med den unges sexuella beteende föranledde tvångsvård.
På samma sätt har HFD bedömt att den unges olika beteenden i kombination med beteendet i fråga, föranledde tvångsvård.
Enligt kammarrätternas bedömningar verkar den unges sexuella beteende i sig vara ett tillräckligt allvarligt risktagande för att besluta om tvångsvård inom ramen för rekvisitet ”socialt nedbrytande beteende”. HFD gör en mer restriktiv tolkning av rekvisitet. Samtidigt kan konstateras att de sexuella beteenden som kammarrätterna har att ta ställning till ligger i linje med de beteenden som i förarbetena exemplifieras som socialt nedbrytande. De beteenden som HFD har att ta ställning till skiljer sig från de i förarbetena exemplifierade beteenden, varför det finns en viss skillnad i kammarrätternas och HFD:s bedömning beträffande rekvisitet.

- In those situations when the society needs to intervene to ensure safety and good living conditions for a young person, this should firstly be done with the social welfare committee’s voluntary treatment plan in agreement with the young person’s guardians and, in some situations, the young person itself. In absence of agreement to the voluntary treatment plan, compulsory care can secondly be provided with the support of the Care of Young Persons Act (1990:52).
Some conditions must be fulfilled so that compulsory care can be provided according to article 3 paragraph one in the Care of Young Persons Act: lack of consent to the voluntary treatment plan and the absence of a qualified need of care, which is a result of the young person’s...

In absence of agreement to the voluntary treatment plan, compulsory care can secondly be provided with the support of the Care of Young Persons Act (1990:52).
Some conditions must be fulfilled so that compulsory care can be provided according to article 3 paragraph one in the Care of Young Persons Act: lack of consent to the voluntary treatment plan and the absence of a qualified need of care, which is a result of the young person’s behaviour. Article 3 paragraph one contains different behaviours: the young person abuses addictive substance, engages in criminal activity or has another socially destructive behaviour. The 'socially destructive behaviour' requirement, meanes, according to the legislative history, that the young person deviates from the basic norms of the society by performing at a sex club or engaging in prostitution for examples. In the case RÅ 2000 ref. 33, the Supreme Administrative Court established that the socially destructive behaviour requirement can include behaviours other than those behaviours mentioned in the legislative history. The Supreme Administrative Court has in many cases established which behaviours that are included in the requirement: symptoms of a mental disability are not included. Nether is revealing of place of residence nor mismanage of life saving medications, included in the requirement. On the other hand, aggressive behaviour and totally shut off from the family and the society are included in the requirement.
The Administrative Court of Appeals have established that a young person’s sexual behaviour can be a socially destructive behaviour. In the cases of the Administrative Court of Appeals that have been studied in this essay, it turned out that the combination of the young person’s behaviours together with other behaviours, resulted in compulsory care. So did the Supreme Administrative Court also decide.
According to the Administrative Court of Appeals’ legal assessments, the young persons’ sexual behaviour seems to be a sufficiently serious risk-taking to decide on compulsory care according to the 'socially destructive behaviour' requirement. The Supreme Administrative Court makes a restrictive interpretation of the requirement. At the same time, it can be stated that the sexual behaviours which the Administrative Court of Appeals must decide in, are in accordance with the behaviours that are exemplified in the legislative history as socially destructive. The behaviours which The Supreme Administrative Court of Appeals must decide in, differ from the exemplified behaviours in the legislative history. Therefore, there is a difference between the Administrative Court of Appeals’ legal assessments and the Supreme Administrative Court’s assessments concerning the requirement. (Less)
