Re: Unemployment benefit cuts take effect on Monday; monthly support may drop by nearly €400
Let's be honest, wilful or unintentional unemployment, if you have higher income support, it does not really encourage to you look for work. Yes, it is difficult, if you could fully afford your life with income support, then you wouldn't push yourself because you are already at rock bottom. This wi...

Re: Court dismisses assault charges against daycare workers, orders child to pay legal costs
You can always request the documents from the court if you want to read fully. Thanks for the constructive answer, I have to clarify one part about fine the parents, I would rather need to say there, let the parents be liable for the legal costs of the other party, because they made the decision to...

Unemployment benefit cuts take effect on Monday; monthly support may drop by nearly €400
I read at Yle the following: Unemployment benefit cuts take effect on Monday; monthly support may drop by nearly €400 When you have only 600€ a month to pay for food, travel, clothes, phone subscription, insurances and 30% of your rent , with a family of 4, this is a huge problem. This is only the b...

Re: Court dismisses assault charges against daycare workers, orders child to pay legal costs
Further more, the court is not obliged to decide to have the losing party to pay the costs of the other party, this is at the discretion of the court. A child cannot take a loan from the bank even if the guardians try to, you would need permission from the DVV and they will refuse. Therefore the ab...

Re: Gas equipment regulations, where to find
In case of an accident, possibly it will be an insurance issue, if a hose not meeting the requirements has been used. Indeed that is true. However, an accident with gas, means most of the time "fire" and when the house is build of wood (pretty common in Finland), there will most likely be...

Re: Gas equipment regulations, where to find
It would be nice to find the actual regulation text about the length of the hose, the store manager told me he did not know where to get it either and in his opinion it is an arbitrary length, as said in my previous post, supposed to have anything to do with the distance to the shut off valve.
