Reform by a new law of administrating social and health care in Finland In short: From municipal administration to counties (18 regional counties with full autonomy to decide where, what and how to produce social and health care services to the inhabitants of the region) According to the proposal, a total of 18 counties based largely on the existing regions will be established in mainland Finland. Counties are public-law bodies that enjoy regional autonomy. The counties will have county councils to be elected by direct popular vote. The counties will serve as public authorities with a wide range of duties to be defined in the County Act. Read more in English:
