Swedish term or phrase: 7 kap 1-3 $$

Note that the $ are actually some kind of S shpaed sign meaning "paragraph"

Det här beslutet grundas pa° 7 kap 1-3 $$ och 16 kap 1 och 5 lagen (1962:381) om allmän försäkring.

If it is chapter 7, paragraph 1 to 3, why is the 7 before the "kap" ?

Tack för hjälpet,

chapter 7, sections 1-3

Explanation:
According to Blacks Law Dictionary, this is the breakdown (as far as I can tell) when you are talking about a law or act:

Part
Title
Chapter
Section
Subsection
Sentence (often "punkt" or pkt. in Swedish)

It is very common to place the number before the word "chapter" or the symbol for "section" in Swedish.

Not quite sure about the order of "title", "chapter" and "part," as I have seen them used in different orders - but that wasn't what your question was about anyway.
