The main argument for reform that the parliamentary Committee on Culture referred to in its proposal for legislative action was the necessity of establishing a form of financing that was sustainable in the long run, was considered legitimate by Swedish citizens, and guaranteed the independence of the Swedish state media corporations (Sveriges Television, Sveriges Radio, and Utbildningsradion).

As only persons aged eighteen and over are subject to the new tax, a two-parent household will pay no more than approximately SEK2,600 (about US$285) annually, a marginal increase in the current SEK2,400 fee.
