The Nordic Council of Ministers (the Ministers of Labour) draws up the political guidelines for cooperation in this area, which also covers general working conditions, legal aspects of industrial relations and the migration of workers in the Nordic region. The Nordic Council of Ministers is assisted by the Nordic Committee of Senior Officials for Labour Market and Working Environment Policy. The secretariat of the Council of Ministers is located in Copenhagen. The Nordic Council of Ministers was established in 1971. It submits proposals on co-operation between the governments of the five Nordic countries to the Nordic Council, implements the Council's recommendations and reports on results, while directing the work carried out in the targeted areas. The Prime Ministers of the five Nordic countries assume overall responsibility for the co-operation measures, which are co-ordinated by the ministers for co-operation and the Nordic Co-operation committee. The composition of the Council of Ministers varies, depending on the nature of the issue to be treated. The Nordic Council was formed in 1952 to promote co-operation between the parliaments and governments of Denmark, Iceland, Norway and Sweden. Finland joined in 1955. At the sessions held by the Council, representatives from the Faroe Islands and Greenland form part of the Danish delegation, while Åland is represented on the Finnish delegation. The Council consists of 87 elected members - all of whom are members of parliament. The Nordic Council takes initiatives, acts in a consultative capacity and monitors co-operation measures. The Council operates via its institutions: the Plenary Assembly, the Presidium and standing committees.

  • Cross-Scale Adaptation Challenges in the Coastal Fisheries: Findings from Lebesby, Northern Norway Jennifer J
    ARCTIC VOL. 63, NO. 3 (SEPTEMBER 2010) P. 338–354 Cross-scale Adaptation Challenges in the Coastal Fisheries: Findings from Lebesby, Northern Norway JEnnIFER J. WEST1.2 and GRETE K. HOVELSRUD1 (Received 24 July 2009; accepted in revised form 14 January 2010) ABSTRacT. Cross-scale adaptation challenges in the coastal fisheries in Lebesby municipality, Finnmark County, northern Norway are examined on the basis of fieldwork conducted there. Although fishery actors in Lebesby are aware of, experience, and describe a number of connections between climate variability and coastal fishing activities, they do not characterize their livelihoods as being particularly vulnerable to climate change. Nevertheless, they identify a range of social factors that shape the flexibility of coastal fishing activities and livelihoods to deal with changing environmental conditions. We argue that these factors, and actors’ perceptions of their own resilience, constitute important aspects of adaptive capacity and may challenge local responses to climate variability and change. We identified four adaptation arenas: local perceptions of vulnerability and resilience to climate change, Lebesby’s social and economic viability, national fishery management and regulations, and the markets and economy of coastal fishing. The adaptation arenas arise and interact across geographic and temporal scales, creating specific barriers and opportunities for local adaptation. Our findings suggest the need to pay close attention to the cross-scale adaptation challenges facing Arctic communities that depend on natural resources. The concept of adaptation arenas helps to illustrate these challenges and should be applied more widely. Key words: coastal fisheries, northern Norway, Barents Sea, vulnerability, adaptive capacity, climate change, local perceptions, coastal communities, adaptation arenas, scale RÉSUMÉ.

  • Orientering Om Utbygging Av Fiber Posanger-Adamselv-Tana.Pdf
    FIBERUTBYGGING FRA LAKSELV TIL TANA VIA ADAMSELV Lebesby kommune ble invitert til et møte med Statnett den 16. desember 2016. På møtet deltok aktører som Statnett, Statkraft, Ishavslink, Nornett, Eltele, Repvåg Kraftlag, Forsvaret, Lebesby og Porsanger kommune. Fra Lebesby kommune deltok Toril Svendsen. Statnett ønsket å drøfte interessen for å arbeide med fiberkabel fram til Adamselv hvor flere av disse aktørene har store og viktige installasjoner. Ulike modeller ble drøftet på møtet, og skissene under viser to av dem: Skisse 1: viser en løsning (rød linje) hvor deler av traséen Skisse 2 er en større utbygging (grønn linje) hvor følger strømledninger og går utenom flere av bygdene i også Børselv, Ifjord, Lebesby, Bekkarfjord, området (skisse Statnett). Vester-Tana er med (skisse Statnett). Deltakerne på møtet er interesserte i prosjektet, men for alle er trasévalg avgjørende for om man kan nyttiggjøre seg av fiberen. Etter møtet hadde vi klar fordeling av arbeidsoppgaver og tidspunkt, men av ulike årsaker er arbeidet forsinket, også fra Lebesby kommunes side. Lebesby kommune innkalte derfor aktørene til et telefonmøte den 10. mars for å gjøre opp status i saken. Etter møtet arbeider Statnett med å avklare hvor stor interessen er for å delta med egenfinasiering, og kommunen har engasjert konsulent Sigve Hansen Gusdal for å hjelpe til med søknad om statlige midler (Nkom-midler) til en slik utbygging. Kostnader med konsulentbruk vil dekkes i et spleiselag, og her kan næringsfondet brukes. Frist for offentliggjøring av prosjektet er 1. april, og søknad må sendes innen 3. mai. Det er kun kommunene som kan søke om Nkom-midler, og da må det også være fibertilknytning helt til sluttbrukerne (boliger, næringsbygg osv).

  • Les NHO Arktis Og LO I Troms Og Finnmarks Innspill Og
    Til Troms og Finnmark fylkeskommune NHO Arktis og LO Troms og Finnmark: INNSPILL TIL STIMULERINGSPAKKE SAMFERDSEL OG INFRASTRUKTUR I TROMS OG FINNMARK 1. Hva og hvorfor NHO Arktis og LO Troms og Finnmark har i samarbeid utarbeidet en prioritert liste over større investeringsprosjekter i landsdelen innenfor samferdsel og infrastruktur. I arbeidet er det prioritert større “gryteklare” prosjekter som vil ha stor betydning for økt jobb- og verdiskaping, og omstilling av et seriøst nærings- og arbeidsliv i regionen i årene som kommer. 1.1. Hvorfor Analysene av den økonomiske krisen vi nå er på vei inn i indikerer en kraftig økonomisk nedgangsperiode, med prognoser på BNP-fall for norsk fastlandsøkonomi på 3-10%. Fallet vil treffe bredt og kun et fåtall næringer vil unngå å bli hardt rammet. Dette gjelder i særdeleshet også i Nord-Norge. Aktivitetsfallet må møtes med motkonjunkturtiltak blant annet i form av økte offentlige investeringer. NHO i Nord-Norge har allerede sammen med LO levert en prioritert liste over satsinger på større statlige investeringsprosjekter i bygg, samferdsel og infrastruktur. Nå har NHO Arktisk og LO Troms og Finnmark laget en tilsvarende prioritert liste på prosjekter som må realiseres i fylkeskommunal regi. Det er lagt vekt på investeringstiltak som vil kunne stimulere økonomien i sin helhet, gjennom både direkte og indirekte virkninger. Omsetningsimpulser inn i bygg- og anleggsbransjen er et virkemiddel som har vist seg svært virkningsfullt ved tidligere kriser. Analyser viser at mer enn halvparten av investerte beløp i bygg og anlegg omsettes til verdiskaping utenfor selve bransjen. Effektene av slike tiltak er tredelt, og kan deles inn i kortsiktige og langsiktige effekter: Kortsiktige effekter 1.

  • A Contemporary Small-Scale Thrust-Fault Near Lebesby, Finnmark
    A contemporary small-scale thrust-fault near Lebesby, Finnmark DAVID ROBERTS Roberts, 0.: A contemporary small-scale thrust-fault near Lebesby, Finnmark. Norsk Geologisk Tidsskrift, Vol. 71, pp. 117-120. Oslo 1991. ISSN 0029-196X. A displaced drillhole in phyllites in a road-cut at Skogvika, Laksefjord, Finnmark, shows a reverse-fault offset of 5.8 cm, the thrust vector directed towards ll8°. The thrust-fault parallels the 40" dipping, axial surface slaty cleavage of Caledonian folds. The displacement has occurred at some time during the 3-year period between the summers of 1986 and 1989. It is suggested that this very recent reverse slip, which is about coaxial with the contemporary, regional, horizontal compressive stress in northern Fennoscandia, can be explained as resulting from a release of accumulated strain energy, triggered either by a seismic event or perhaps by the actual blasting of the road-cut. Aseismic creep may also have contributed to the overall finite displacement. David Roberts, Geological Survey of Norway, P. O. Box 3006-Lade, N-7002 Trondheim, Norway.

  • House Structures and Social Identification in Finnmark, Arctic Norway 2400 BC–AD 300
    Marianne Skandfer Department of Archaeology and Social Anthropology University of Tromsø, Norway Change and Recollection: House Structures and Social Identification in Finnmark, Arctic Norway 2400 BC–AD 300 Introduction My intention in this paper is to discuss how and why societies remember by engaging in actions involving specific sets of material culture. It is now gener- ally believed that Sámi identity emerged in Fennoscandia within a multi-cul- tural setting during the last millennium BC, but the motivations for this, the speed, the socio-cultural processes and effects and the geographical catchment of the formation are still blurred. In this paper, I consider some of the possible socio-cultural processes involved by exploring the role of memory, history and material objects in the Sámi identity formation process. My point of departure is provided by the large, semi-subterranean dwelling structures – the so-called “Gressbakken houses” – known from Finnmark, Arctic Norway. This house type has been dated around 2000 calBC, but it also has a phase of reuse around BC/AD. I suggest that the hunter-gatherer communities in Arctic Norway around BC/AD had a notion of a past which was tied to structures in the landscape act- ing as mnemonic devices. Around BC/AD, remains of “Gressbakken houses”, well visible above the ground, were used actively to relate the present to the past. Identification, Habitus and Collective Memory In daily parlance, identity is often referred to as something almost physically solid, as a kind of “thing”. However, as indicated in the title, identity is a dy- namic process. In the following I highlight identification instead of identity to underline that this is about dynamic, multi-faceted, changing processes deal- ing with relations between “self” and “the other”.

Tall har tidligere vært offentliggjort i Statistisk ukehefte nr. 16-17/76 og Nye distriktstall nr. 4/76 for Nordland, Troms og Finnmark. Statistisk Sentralbyrå har bedt forfatteren analysere statistikken fra tilleggsundersøkelsen. I denne artikkelen søker han å avgrense den samiske befolkningen, og å beskrive den ut fra demografiske og sosiale kjennemerker: Dessuten sammenlikner han den samiske befolkningen i ulike deler av Nord-Norge, og analyserer den. samiske befolkning som en del av hele befolkningen i landsdelen. Statistisk Sentralbyrå, Oslo, 13. mars 1978 Petter Jakob Bjerve PREFACE In connection with the Population and Housing Census 1970 an additional survey was carried out in pre-selected census tracts in Nordland, Troms and Finnmark. The purpose was to give information on persons with Lappish connection resident in the tracts. Figures are previously published in Weekly Bulletin of Statistics no. 16-17/76 and New District Figures no. 4/76 for Nordland, Troms and Finnmark. Central Bureau of Statistics asked the author for an analysis of the information from the additional survey. In this article he tries to mark the bounds of the Lappish population and to give a description based on demographic and social characteristics.
