Iselin Nybø Minister of Trade and Industry 7 Scope and key figures The following is an overview of the 73 companies in which the State has full or part ownership and key figures for these companies in 2019. The companies have been divided into three categories based on the State's goals as owner and whether the State has a rationale for its ownership. For the companies in Categories 1 and 2, the State’s goal as owner is the highest possible return over time. These are companies that primarily operate in competition with other companies. For companies in Category 3, the State’s goal as owner is the most efficient possible attainment of public policy goals. These are companies that do not primarily operate in competition with other companies.

We do this together with and on behalf of many important players on the Norwegian continental shelf (NCS). Safe, reliable and efficient operation is always our priority, and safety always comes first. It is gratifying to note that virtually all HSE indicators moved in the right direction during 2019. An absence of gas leaks provides an important example of this. We also again achieved good gas deliveries from the NCS, providing some 107 billion standard cubic metres (scm) of natural gas to the UK and continental Europe. That nevertheless represented some reduction from 2018. One reason for this decline is that we implemented an extensive maintenance programme on the transport network during the year. That work safeguards the integrity and safety of our gas deliveries for the future.

  • Markedet Overtar
    RAPPORT 2:2020 O Roar Eilertsen og Paul Bjerke Markedet overtar Konsekvenser av jernbanereformen 2 Forord Valget i 2021 vil få enorm betydning for utviklingen av norsk jernbane- sektor. Hvis de blå vinner, vil jernbanereformens omfattende oppsplitting og markedsgjøring fortsette. Hvis de rødgrønne vinner vil politikken bli lagt om, og videre fordyrende og byråkratiserende konkurranseutsetting bli stoppet. Med mer høyrepolitikk er konsekvensene for de mange tusen ansatte i sektoren usikker, og det er store sjanser for at passasjerene må betale mer for å reise med tog. I denne rapporten belyser vi både hva som har skjedd så langt etter at reformen ble innført fra 1. januar 2017, hvilke planer som foreligger, og erfaringer med tilsvarende politikk i andre land. Og vi viser hvordan de mange titalls milliarder kronene som hvert år bevilges til jernbaneformål brukes. Rapporten konsentrerer seg om persontrafikken med tog. Gods med tog ble konkurranseutsatt fra 2008, som følge av EUs jernbanepakke 2, og blir ikke berørt her. I arbeidet med rapporten har vi snakket med ledelse og tillitsvalgte i jernbanen, vi har studert budsjettdokumenter og årsrapporter, og vi sammenfatter internasjonal forskning på erfaringer med konkurranse- utsetting av jernbanen. Tusen takk til alle som har stilt opp, brukt tid på oss og delt kunnskap med oss. Rapporten er utarbeidet av undertegnede i De Facto – Kunnskapssenter for fagorganiserte på oppdrag fra Norsk Jernbaneforbund. Takk til ledelsen i NJF, som på en utmerket måte har lagt til rette for arbeidet vårt. Vi håper at rapporten kommer til nytte i fagbevegelsens arbeid med å utvikle en framtidsrettet politikk for jernbanen, uten den ansvarspulverisering, ressurssløsing og usikkerhet som dagens jernbanepolitikk medfører.

  • Sak 1: Mål Og Indikatorer for Måloppnåelse Og Effektiv Drift I
    Sak 1: Mål og indikatorer for måloppnåelse og effektiv drift i heleide selskaper der staten har en samfunnsmessig begrunnelse eller et sektorpolitisk mål med eierskapet Målet med undersøkelsen har vært å vurdere om heleide selskaper der staten har en samfunnsmessig begrunnelse for eller et sektorpolitisk mål med eierskapet, benytter mål og indikatorer for måloppnåelse og effektiv drift og rapporterer med bakgrunn i disse. Videre er det vurdert i hvilken grad departementene følger opp og vurderer samfunnsmessige effekter eller sektorpolitisk måloppnåelse og effektiv drift i selskapene. Som eier skal staten utarbeide et tydelig mål for eierskapet, fastsette vedtekter og velge styre, samt følge opp statens forventninger. Staten kan også benytte virkemidler som sektorspesifikk lovgivning, konsesjoner, statlige tilsyn og finansielle virkemidler som tilskudd, kjøp av tjenester og brukerfinansiering. Valg av styringsvirkemidler og selskapsform setter rammer for selskapets virksomhet og for statens eieroppfølging. Selskapets styre skal utarbeide klare mål og strategier innenfor rammene av selskapets vedtekter og rapportere om oppnåelse av disse til eier. Flere av Riksrevisjonens tidligere undersøkelser har vist at staten i liten grad benytter eierdialogen til å følge opp de samfunnsmessige effektene eller den sektorpolitiske måloppnåelsen som ligger til grunn for eierskapet. Undersøkelsene har også vist at det er behov for å styrke selskapenes arbeid med å fastsette mål og indikatorer som gjør det mulig å vurdere måloppnåelse og effektiv drift. Studier foretatt av blant annet Sørensen og Rattsø og Direktoratet for forvaltning og IKT har pekt på lignende utfordringer. For å tydeliggjøre statens mål med eierskapet i det enkelte selskap har den statlige selskapsporteføljen siden 2006 vært inndelt i fire kategorier.

A New Environmental Deal for Airport Regions About the Airport Regions Conference The Airport Regions Conference (ARC) is an association of regional and local authorities across Europe with an international airport situated within or near its territory. The ARC brings together a wide range of expertise at the interface of air transport and local and regional policies. A common concern is to balance the economic benefits generated by the airports against their environmental impact, notably the effect on the quality of life of local residents. The members exchange best practices through ARC network and reflect together on policy challenges ahead. As such the ARC also serves as a platform to express members interests to the European Institutions. We were delighted to be hosted for our annual general meeting in Oslo Akershus, and we want to share with you the knowledge harvested on that occasion. Sergi Alegre Calero – ARC president – Vice Mayor El Prat de Llobregat About Akershus County Council Oslo Airport is to further enhance its reputation as one of the world’s greenest airports by opening a hydrogen station for vehicles.
