The new code reflected the goal of rehabilitation, although it used the word 'punishment.' Although both the code and the preceding laws were very liberal, many parts of Swedish society criticized them, particularly with respect to the use of incarceration and the treatment of prisoners. The critics' views were summarized in a 1977 report from the National Swedish Council for Crime Prevention. These views affected subsequent reforms, which included the decriminalization of drunkenness in public places and changes in the definitions of burglary and robbery. In addition, increased punishments for drug trafficking and tax fraud were enacted. In 1979 Parliament abolished youth prison, as well as probation with institutional care. Prison reform resulting from the new Prison Law enacted in 1974 rests on the view that prisoners should serve their terms in institutions close to their homes in order to maintain contacts with their relatives and to have access to the social services of their local communities. When entering prison, prisoners and the prison's treatment board make a treatment plan for the inmate's training during incarceration. Furloughs are used extensively. Parole is an integrated part of the treatment of prisoners. Recent proposals for further correctional reforms have focused on the treatment of mentally disturbed criminals and provisions for alcoholics and drug addicts. All these proposals reflect the philosophy of eliminating rehabilitation by force. Two committees were established in 1979 to make plans for future correctional policy.
