Government ministers in these days are past the prime minister’s office and submit a fireårsplan for their ressortområde.

It is a management tool, as the prime minister has introduced in order to tighten his grip on power with what happens in out in the individual ministries, writes Politiken.

“What has been the tradition for many years, has been an absence of long-term political leadership. Successive governments have in fact led Denmark in the same way: that the individual ministers are pushing a case up through the system, and so ends up in the coordination – or the finance committee. But you can’t lead a country on cases,” says Mette Frederiksen to the newspaper.

“Denmark must be stronger seen with democratic glasses, than when we took over.”

This is according to the prime minister, that ministers must not become too busy running their ministries, but also be forced to create more distinctive changes in their territory.

“If not one all of the time management insists that it is, there is the task, run the risk of all ministers, including myself, to drift,” says the prime minister to Politiken.

“the Operation is a necessary task, one must not take lightly, but it is not the main task. It is to alter, for that is what politics is all about.”

According to the newspaper Politiken, each minister and the minister’s spin doctors in those days to explain to the prime minister, what they will be remembered for about four years.
