referral for comment, referred the ____ for comment
Explanation:
Remissförandet is a quintessentially Swedish phenomenon, which makes it difficult to translate, and indeed, appreciate its importance to Swedish democracy. I hesitate to use Referral process, because it doesn't express what "sending something on REMISS really means.
