The Enforcement Agency collected false invoices

First, the news about false invoices.

In Finland, people and companies are forced to pay false invoices to the Enforcement Service.

The enforcement agency may have notified the wrong person or company that the invoice has not been paid.

The agency then took the money directly from their bank accounts.

Many people or companies have had to ask for their money back.

Some people don’t know how to fix it.

The Finnish Competition and Consumer Authority says that there are thousands of false debt collection cases every year.

The Enforcement Agency can collect money for false invoices.

New group rescues in dangerous places

Next, news about a new rescue team.

A group specializing in dangerous situations has been started at the Helsinki Rescue Department.

A Rescue Task Force (RTF) can help patients in a dangerous location. For example, they can treat a victim who has been shot, even if the shooter is still at large in the area.

Teamwork is important, for example, in mass shootings, when many patients need help quickly.

Previously, rescuers have had to wait for the police to declare the area safe.

Ministry wants prisoners in Estonia

Then the news about the prisoners.

The Ministry of Justice proposes that prisoners be transferred from Finland to Estonia.

The ministry wants to transfer prisoners to Estonia because Finnish prisons are full.

The Criminal Sanctions Agency, formerly known as the Prison Service, does not support transferring prisoners to Estonia. It says that transferring prisoners to Estonia is too expensive.

In Estonia, one month in prison costs more than in Finland. The Criminal Sanctions Agency wants new prisons to be built in Finland.

The Ministry of Justice proposes that prisoners be transferred from Finland to Estonia.

The weather is hot.

Still a weather forecast.

On Tuesday, there may be rain and thunderstorms in Lapland and the south.

Elsewhere it is cloudy and sunny.

The temperature is 24–30 degrees.
