Introduction Norwegian language skills and knowledge of Norwegian society are preconditions essential to ena- bling immigrants to take part in work and community life. This document contains a summary of those who have the right and the obligation to learn Norwegi- an, a description of the various levels of proficiency and an assortment of tools and resources for use in the training of the various different groups of immigrants. Additionally, a list of some of the providers of Norwegian language courses for adults in Nordland is enclosed. The list provides an insight into the various types of offerings available in Nordland as of autumn 2014. The guide is intended to be a useful tool for anyone with an advisory or training capacity in the work with adult immigrants, and is one of the initiatives in Nordland County Council’s immigration project. Katharina Hanssen has been in charge of its development. The Nordland Career Centres offer career guidance for adults and young people. A separate guide for the career guidance of immigrants is also available. The Nordland County Council Department of Education is responsible for the annual revision of this guide.

The right and the obligation to learn Norwegian Some immigrants have the right to free Norwegian language tuition paid for by the local authorities, whereas others must pay for tuition themselves. The following table was provided by IMDI and shows which groups of immigrants have the right and/or obligation to take Norwegian language tuition: http://www.imdi.no/no/Norskopplaering/Rett-og-plikt-til-norskopplaring/Hvem-har-rett-ogeller- plikt-til-opplaring/ Grouping Right Obligation Free Number of lessons 1) People who have been granted asylum, people allowed to stay on humanitarian grounds, the reunited families of these groups Yes Yes Yes 600 lessons (550 and those granted collective Norwegian language protection, 16–55 years of age. lessons and 50 social studies lessons). 2) The reunited families of If necessary up to Norwegian and Nordic citizens an additional 2400 living in Norway, 16–55 years Yes Yes Yes Norwegian language of age. lessons. 3) People from group 1) or 2) aged 55–67 years. Yes No Yes 4) Immigrant workers not 300 lessons (250 subject to EEA/EFTA rules, Norwegian language 16–55 years of age. No Yes No lessons and 50 social studies lessons) Asylum seekers have a right to 175 lessons, and the local authorities in towns and boroughs where there is a local reception centre for asylum seekers are responsible for this. The local authorities are not obliged to provide Norwegian language tuition for people who have neit- her the right nor the obligation to take Norwegian lessons, but are free to offer tuition to these groups where they see fit. The above table shows which groups have the right and/or obligation to take Norwegian and social studies tuition. The term “right” refers to the right to free tuition. The term “obligation” is associated with the possibility of permanent residence and citizenship. It is the grounds on which a person’s stay is based, that determines whether they have a right/obligation to take Norwegian and social studies tuition. What do we mean by a “right”? Having a right to Norwegian tuition means that the person in question is entitled to free Norwegian language and social studies tuition in the municipality where he or she lives. 5 What do we mean by an obligation? Having an obligation to take Norwegian tuition means that the person in question is required to complete a course in Norwegian language and social studies in order to be eligible to apply for a perma- nent residence permit or Norwegian citizenship. Those who have an obligation to take tuition, but not a right to it, are required to pay for the course themselves. What do we mean by a right and an obligation? Having a right and an obligation to take Norwegian lessons means that the person in question is entit- led to free Norwegian language tuition in the community where he or she lives, and that the compul- sory Norwegian course must be completed before the person may apply for a permanent residence permit or Norwegian citizenship. Immigrants who have a right and an obligation or simply an obligation to take lessons in Norwegian and social studies can, in certain cases, be exempted from the obligation when applying for a permanent residence permit or Norwegian citizenship. People with the following documentation can apply to their local authorities for exemption from the obligation to take Norwegian lessons, re.§ 3 in the Introducti- on Act (introduksjonsloven): In this case, documentation of adequate knowledge of Norwegian or Sami means: (The applicant must be able to verify one of the following items) • Passed language test – Norskprøve, Norwegian Test, Level A2, both oral and written, or • Completed course in Norwegian or Sami language, where marks/grades are given in the subject, or • ompleted studies in Norwegian or Sami at university or other higher education level in Norway, or in a foreign country, to the equivalent of 30 ECTS credits (studiepoeng), or • That the applicant meets the admission requirements for Norwegian or Sami language studies at a university or other higher education institution. Courses in Norwegian are available on the Internet, at certain workplaces and in the classroom. Ho- wever, not all of these follow the curriculum required for approval as mandatory Norwegian language courses. NB! Immigrants wishing to take Norwegian tuition are required to contact the local authorities where they live, and complete courses offered by providers approved by the local authorities.

For those who do not have this right, offerings vary from place to place and between the various course providers. Some web-based courses are free of charge. Norwegian lessons for students with the above-mentioned right are funded by the government, and each local authority is remunerated for providing free tuition to this group. The funding is allocated by the Directorate for Integration and Diversity (IMDI), which is also responsible for reporting, statistics, etc. For those who do not have the right to free Norwegian lessons, conditions vary from place to place with regard to who offers tuition and how much it costs. The basic principle is that everyone is responsible for paying for their own education, as is the case with all other types of education in Norway that are not associated with specific rights. Many employers cover the cost of this type of tuition and keep in contact with local providers. Many municipal adult education authorities also offer tuition to those without the legal right to it, at some places it has to be paid for, at others not so. Norwegian language tuition is offered by municipal adult education authorities, private course providers, colleges of further education associated with the OPUS organisation, web-based schools and universities/colleges of higher education. In Nordland most of it takes place at the municipal adult education authorities. Certain groups requiring basic Norwegian language tuition may apply for funding from VOX, the National Agency for Lifelong Learning. http://www.vox.no/Tilskudd/ Photo: Ivan Arntzen 7 4. Norwegian language skills – requirements and various levels of proficiency 4.1 The common European framework of reference for languages The framework of reference is a common European scale used to establish levels of language proficiency based on the 5 language skills: listening, reading, oral skills, oral interaction and written skills http://www.vox.no/Norsk-og-samfunnskunnskap/Lareplan/ he framework is a description of what it means to be proficient in a language and constitutes a guideline and a scale for language learning to this effect. The scale is used to describe the levels of knowledge and skills among language students in Europe and to an increasing extent also in other countries. Its aim is to provide a common European standard for the various levels of language skills. The scale is divided into three sections, each of which includes two subsections, altogether six different levels: A – Basic User o A1 – Beginner o A2 – Elementary B – Independent User o B1 – Intermediate o B2 – Upper Intermediate C – Proficient User o C1 – Advanced o C2 – Language skills almost on a level with a native speaker Kan oversette denne om vi får tilsendt hovedfilen til bildet.

  • The Nickel Mineralizationof the Rana Mafic Intrusion, Nordland, Norway
    • THE NICKEL MINERALIZATIONOF THE RANA MAFIC INTRUSION, NORDLAND, NORWAY. Rognvald Boyd and Carl 0. Mathiesen Norges geologiskeundersøkelse,Postboks 3006, 7001 Trondheim, Norway. NORGES GEOLOGISKE UNDERSØKELSE ABSTRACT The Råna synorogenicCaledonide intrusion in north Norway contains pentlandite+pyrrhotite+chalcopyrite+pyritedisseminationsgrading up tO 0.8% sulfide nickel in peridotite in the northwesternpart of the body. Peridotite and pyroxenite occur as bands and lenses within a peripheral zone mainly of norite, around a core mainly of quartz-norite.Crystal settling appears to have been an important process at Råna but over much of the intrusion primary structureshave been severely disturbed by the later Caledonian fold phases which also involved local overthrusting: these movements resulted in iniolding and thrustingof units of semipel- itic and calesilicate gneiss and black schist into the intrusion.The body has the form of an inverted, possibly truncated cone with its axiS plunging northwestwardsat a moderate angle. The peridotites show no obvioUs systematicvariation of sulfide or silicate mineralogy across strike. Locally, ass&iated with certain deformation zones, disseminationpasses into ma3sive mobilized sulfide ti with up to 5% nickel. The proximity of sulfide-bearingblack schists to mineralized rocks, the occurrence of graphite djsseminated in peridotite and other factors, suggest assimilationof sulfur from the Country rocks. Sulfur isotope studies do not, however, offer confirmationof the hypo- thesis that an external source ot sulfur nas had more than very local significanceat Råna. 1 NORGES GEOLOGISKE UNDERSØKELSE • INTRODUCTION The Råna mafic intrusion lies at approximately68°30'N, in steep mountainous terrain 20 km soutnwest of the iron-ore port of Narvik in north Norway (Fig.1).The present paper will give a brief description of the general geology of the complex, with a more detailed consider- ation of the sulfide-bearingareas - especially the main one at Bruvann (Fig.2) - and of the cenetic implicationsinvolved.

  • Oppdrag Til Fylkesmannen I Nordland – Tysfjord
    Kommunal- og moderniseringsdepartementet Saksb.: Robert Isaksen Postboks 8112 Dep e-post: [email protected] Tlf: 75531612 0032 OSLO Vår ref: 2017/3977 Deres ref: 17/2556 Vår dato: 23.06.2017 Deres dato: 16.06.2017 Arkivkode: 732.1 Oppdrag til Fylkesmannen i Nordland – Tysfjord Det vises til brev av 16.juni 2017, hvor Kommunal- og moderniseringsdepartementet ber Fylkesmannen i Nordland om å utarbeide et forslag til en plan for oppfølgingstiltak etter overgrepssakene i Tysfjord innen 23.juni 2017. I denne oversendelsen gjøres det rede for forslaget fra Fylkesmannen. Den korte tidsfristen har lagt begrensninger på Fylkesmannens mulighet til å involvere andre aktører i arbeidet. Fylkesmannen har mottatt et innspill fra Tysfjord Fellesliste. Innspillet ligger vedlagt dette brevet og kommer i tillegg til de forslag som Fylkesmannen har. Forslaget fra Fylkesmannen må betraktes som en foreløpig skisse til en plan for oppfølgingstiltak. I samarbeid med aktuelle fagmiljø og aktører vil det være behov for justeringer og utdyping av de enkelte punkter. Bakgrunn Tysfjord kommune har hatt utfordringer med avdekking av en rekke seksuelle overgrep. Disse har i stor grad foregått innenfor rammene av en taushetskultur med begrenset sjanse for å bli avslørt og straffeforfulgt. I juni 2016 skjedde imidlertid flere ting som utfordret denne taushetskulturen: 1. Reportasje i VG Helg lørdag den 11.juni 2016, der en rekke personer i Tysfjord fortalte om seksuelle overgrep, samt etterfølgende artikler i flere medier. 2. Enstemmig uttalelse fra Tysfjord kommune, jf. kommunestyremøte den 22.6.2016: «Tysfjord kommune vil beklage overfor ofrene som har opplevd overgrep. Tysfjord kommune erkjenner at dette er en utfordring for hele Tysfjord-samfunnet og vil ta avstand fra uttalelser som utpeker enkelte grupper og miljøer i kommunen.

  • The Lillevik Dyke Complex, Narvik: Geochemistry and Tectonic Implications of a Probable Ophiolite Fragment in the Caledonides of the Ofoten Region, North Norway
    The Lillevik dyke complex, Narvik: geochemistry and tectonic implications of a probable ophiolite fragment in the Caledonides of the Ofoten region, North Norway ROGNVALD BOYD Boyd, R.: The Lillevik dyke complex, Narvik: geochemistry and tectonic implications of a probable ophiolite fragment in the Caledonides of the Ofoten region, North Norway. Norsk Geologisk Tidsskrift, Vol. 63, pp. 39-54. Oslo 1983, ISSN 0029-196X. The Lillevik dyke complex occurs in an allochthonous unit and shows field relationships indicative of a transition from the mafic cumulate to the sheeted dyke zone in a segment of an ophiolite. Major and trace element chemistry confirm the MORB character of most of the diabases. Certain diabase, gabbro and trondhjemite dykes have REE patterns suggesting a later stage of ocean-island volcanism. The Lillevik complex and equivalent bodies along strike on the eastern limb of the Ofoten synform are a probable source for the mafic facies of the overlying Elvenes Conglomerate. Analogies with other areas suggest that the Lillevik complex was obducted during the Finnmarkian orogeny. R. Boyd, Norges geologiske undersøkelse, Postboks 3006, N-7001 Trondheim, Norway.

  • NARVIK – Norwegian Eldorado for Wreck-Divers Wrecks of Narvik
    NARVIK – Norwegian Eldorado for wreck-divers Wrecks of Narvik Text by Erling Skjold (history and diving) and Frank Bang (diving) Underwater photography by Frank Bang Ship photography by Erling Skjolds, NSA collection Translation by Michael Symes Dieter von Roeder The port of Narvik in north Norway was established around the export of iron-ore from Sweden. This was due to the very good harbour and its ice-free con- ditions. At the outbreak of World War II, Narvik was a strategically important harbour, and during the first few days of the war a very intense battle was fought out here between German, Norwegian and British naval forces. During this fighting several ships were sunk, both warships and civil merchant ships. Narvik harbour was transformed into a great ship ceme- tery, with wrecks sticking up out of the water every- where. Several of the ships were later salvaged, but many wrecks still remained. With its high density of wrecks, Narvik is an eldorado for wreck divers.

Nordland (NOF Nordland) • Norges Jeger- og Fiskerforbund Nordland (NJFF Nordland) • Naturvernforbundet i Nordland Vi beklager sent høringsinnspill, og håper våre merknader blir tatt med. Vi vil uansett følge opp dette i innspillsgruppene og i det videre planarbeid. Innspill til planprogram – interkommunal kystsoneplan for Evenes, Narvik, Ballangen, Tysfjord og Hamarøy Viser til høring av planprogram for interkommunal kystsoneplan for Evenes, Narvik, Ballangen, Tysfjord og Hamarøy. Kommunene har startet en interkommunal planprosess for å utarbeide en kystsoneplan for felles kystområder og fjordsystem. Bakgrunnen for planarbeidet er et ønske om en forutsigbar og bærekraftig forvaltning av sjøarealene. Arbeidet er organisert etter plan- og bygningsloven kapittel 9 interkommunalt plansamarbeid og det er opprettet et eget styre med en politisk valgt representant fra hver kommune. Dette styret har mottatt delegert myndighet fra kommunestyrene/ Bystyret til å varsle oppstart, fastsette planprogram og legge planforslag ut på høring. Endelig planprogram skal fastsettes i september 2019, og endelig vedtak av plan vil være september 2020. Planprosessen bygger på FNs bærekraftsmål og planprogrammet skisserer tre fokusområder for det videre arbeidet med planarbeidet. Dette er: • Akvakultur og fiskeri • Reise - og friluftsliv • Ferdsel __________________________________________________________________________________ forum for Forum for natur og friluftsliv i Nordland natur og Eiaveien 5, 8208 Fauske friluftsliv [email protected] / 90 80 61 46 Nordland www.fnf-nett.no/nordland Org. nr.: 983267998 FNF Nordlands merknader til planprogrammet FNF Nordland viser til de gode uttalelsene fra Narvik og Omegn JFF, Naturvernforbundet i Narvik og slutter oss til disse.

  • Hovedrapport Ny Jernbane Fauske – Tromsø (Nord-Norgebanen) Oppdatert Kunnskapsgrunnlag
    Hovedrapport Ny jernbane Fauske – Tromsø (Nord-Norgebanen) Oppdatert kunnskapsgrunnlag Dokument nr.: 21 007 105 Dato: 02.12.2019 Sammendrag Sammendrag Bakgrunn for oppdraget Jernbanedirektoratet har fått i oppdrag fra Samferdselsdepartementet å utarbeide et oppdatert kostnadsanslag og en samfunnsøkonomisk analyse for en ny jernbanestrekning Fauske – Tromsø (Nord-Norgebanen). Analysen skal baseres på den traseen som ble vurdert i Jernbaneverkets rapport «Jernbanens rolle i nord» i 2011. En trinnvis utbygging skal også vurderes. Vi skal ikke utarbeide en konseptvalgutrening, men følge KVU-metodikken så langt vi ser det som hensiktsmessig. Kostnadsanslaget skal være på et utredningsnivå innenfor +/- 40 prosent usikkerhet. Det er en forventning om økt produksjon av fisk og turisme som ligger til grunn for å gjøre nye vurderinger. Harstad er sentral i fiskerinæringen. Vi har derfor valgt å også se på en sidearm fra Bjerkvik til Harstad. I tillegg har vi sett en økning i kostnadene ved å bygge tunnel. Traseen fra 2011 har en tunnelandel på 58 prosent. Vi har derfor også sett på en trase som har 45 prosent tunnelandel slik at vi kan se hvordan færre tunneler virker inn på kostnadsbildet. En forenklet behovsanalyse, blant annet basert på de tre innspillskonferansene, viser at: • Det er behov for et pålitelig transportsystem med bedre kapasitet og regularitet for person- og godstransport • Det er behov for et transportsystem med smidige overganger mellom ulike transportformer • Det er behov for å transportere gods til det internasjonale markedet raskt og effektivt • Det er behov for å styrke trafikksikkerheten Vi etablerer ikke målstruktur for denne utredningen. Det vil først komme i en eventuell KVU-fase.
