Although the government’s review of its four years in office shows that a great deal has been achieved, the party leaders stress that the three-party majority government should win the election on the basis of what it plans to do during the next four years.
Selv om regjeringens oppsummering av fire år viser at mye er gjort, er partilederne opptatt av at valget vinnes på det flertallsregjeringen skal gjøre i de neste fire årene.
“This government set itself high goals when it drew up its policy platform at Soria Moria in 2005.
– Denne regjeringen satte seg store mål da vi laget regjeringserklæringen på Soria Moria i 2005.
We have achieved a lot, and are proud of our results.

But there is still much that needs to be done.
Men vi har enda mye ugjort.
We want to achieve more,” the three party leaders said.
Vi vil mer, sier de tre partilederne.
According to the party leaders, there are particularly four areas that stand out:
Partilederne varslet at det er særlig fire områder som peker seg ut:
Further efforts will be made to ensure work for all and to combat the effects of the international economic crisis.
Fortsatt innsats for å sikre arbeid til alle og bekjempe virkningene av den internasjonale økonomiske krisen.
The aim is to create and maintain jobs in all parts of the country.
Skape og bevare arbeidsplasser i hele landet.
Welfare services will be further developed to improve the quality of hospitals and municipal health services, provide better care services for the elderly and improve education.
Bygge velferden videre ut slik at kvaliteten i sykehus og kommunehelsetjeneste styrkes, eldreomsorgen forbedres og at skolen blir bedre.
The road and railway networks will be further developed.
Veier og jernbane skal bygges videre ut.
Norway will continue to work actively to ensure that international climate efforts lead to new commitments.
Vi skal fortsatt være pådrivere for at det internasjonale klimaarbeidet skal føre fram til nye forpliktelser.

Flertallsregjeringens politiske regnskap:
“The merger will make it easier to build on the strengths of the existing university colleges.
− Sammenslåingen vil gjøre det enklere å bygge videre på styrkene til de eksisterende høyskolene.
The new university college will be better equipped to compete for students and research funding, both nationally and internationally,” says the minister.
Den nye høyskolen vil være bedre rustet til å konkurrere både nasjonalt og internasjonalt – både om studentene og om forskningsmidlene, sier Røe Isaksen.
“The size of the new university college will enhance its position as a significant regional actor and attractive collaborative partner.
– Høyskolen får også en størrelse som gjør det lettere å være en betydelig regional aktør og en attraktiv samarbeidspartner.
Successful reform
Vellykket reform
The objective of the reform is to concentrate resources on fewer but stronger universities and university colleges.
Hensikten med strukturreformen er å samle ressursene på færre, men sterkere universiteter og høyskoler.
In addition, four private university colleges have merged to become VID Specialized University.
I tillegg har fire private høyskoler slått seg sammen til VID vitenskapelig høgskole.
“Universities and university colleges have stepped up to the challenge we gave them and have demonstrated their willingness to make the necessary changes.
– Universitetene og høyskolene har tatt den utfordringen vi ga dem og vist vilje til å gjøre nødvendige endringer.
Fewer but stronger institutions enable us to lay a foundation for enhanced quality in higher education and research.
Med færre, men sterkere institusjoner kan vi legge grunnlaget for økt kvalitet i høyere utdanning og forskning.
A unified student union
Én studentsamskipnad
To streamline student services at the new university college, the student unions affiliated with Hedmark University College and Lillehammer University College are also being merged into a single organisation as of 1 January 2017.
For å fremme en enhetlig organisering av studentvelferden ved Høgskolen i Innlandet skal Studentsamskipnaden i Oppland og Studentsamskipnaden i Hedmark fra 1. januar 2017 organiseres som én virksomhet.
The new name will be Studentsamskipnaden i Innlandet [The Innlandet Student Union].

Hilde Frafjord Johnson new UN representative in South Sudan
Hilde Frafjord Johnson ny FN-representant i Sør-Sudan
“I am delighted that the UN Secretary-General has appointed Hilde Frafjord Johnson as his new special representative for South Sudan.
- Jeg er svært glad for at FNs generalsekretær har utpekt Hilde Frafjord Johnson som sin nye spesialrepresentant for Sør-Sudan.
Norway has actively promoted this important appointment,” said Minister of Foreign Affairs Jonas Gahr Støre.
Norge har arbeidet aktivt overfor FN for å sikre denne viktige utnevnelsen, sier utenriksminister Jonas Gahr Støre.
Former Development Minister Hilde Frafjord Johnson was appointed Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General for South Sudan on 8 July.
Tidligere utviklingsminister Hilde Frafjord Johnson ble utnevnt som FNs generalsekretærs spesialrepresentant for Sør-Sudan 8. juli.
Her candidature was actively supported by the Norwegian Government.
Hennes kandidatur hadde aktiv støtte fra den norske regjeringen.
On the same day the Security Council adopted a mandate for a new UN operation in South Sudan.
Samme dag vedtok Sikkerhetsrådet et mandat for en ny FN-operasjon i Sør-Sudan.
Ms Johnson will lead the UN’s work in what, from today, will become Africa’s 54th state and soon the UN’s 193rd member.
Johnson blir nå FNs øverste sjef i det som fra i dag blir Afrikas 54. stat – og snart FNs 193. medlemsland.
She was a key player in the peace negotiations between North and South Sudan, and knows the region well.
Hun var en sentral støttespiller i fredsforhandlingene mellom Nord- og Sør-Sudan og kjenner regionen godt.
Since August 2007, she has been Deputy Executive Director of UNICEF.
Siden august 2007 har hun vært nestleder i UNICEF.
I congratulate Hilde Frafjord Johnson on her appointment.
Jeg gratulerer Hilde Frafjord Johnson med den nye stillingen.
The Government has announced that it is intensifying its efforts in fragile states.
Regjeringen varsler nå en større innsats i sårbare stater.
Fragile states are characterised by weak regimes that have inadequate control over their territory.
Fellestrekk ved sårbare stater er svake regimer med mangelfull kontroll over eget territorium.
They have poorly functioning economies due to corruption and illicit financial flows.
Økonomiene fungerer dårlig på grunn av korrupsjon og ulovlig kapitalflyt.
In some cases, they collapse completely, as we have seen in Syria and South Sudan.
Av og til kollapser de helt, slik vi ser i Syria og Sør-Sudan.
‘Providing support to fragile states to prevent them from collapsing into chaos or becoming havens for terrorists is an important foreign policy priority,’ Mr Brende said.
- Å støtte sårbare stater for å hindre at de kollapser i kaos eller blir fristeder for terrorister er en viktig utenrikspolitisk prioritering, sier Brende.
Building peace and security is essential for achieving development in fragile states.
I sårbare stater må det bygges fred og sikkerhet for å oppnå utvikling.
This is made clear in the OECD report States of Fragility 2015.
Dette understøttes også i OECD-rapporten States of Fragility 2015.
According to the OECD, only 4.5 % of international aid is allocated to the security and justice sector, even in fragile states.
Ifølge OECD går kun 4,5 prosent av internasjonal bistand til sikkerhets- og justissektoren, selv i sårbare stater.
Norway intends to play a part in changing this.
Dette vil Norge være med på å endre.
Six fragile states have been identified as focus countries for Norway’s development cooperation: Afghanistan, Palestine, Haiti, Somalia, South Sudan and Mali.
Seks sårbare stater er valgt som fokusland for norsk utviklingssamarbeid: Afghanistan, Palestina, Haiti, Somalia, Sør-Sudan og Mali.

‘I am very concerned about the latest setback in the South Sudan peace talks.
- Jeg er svært bekymret for den siste utviklingen i fredsforhandlingene i Sør-Sudan.
I urge both parties to return to the negotiating table as soon as possible,’ said Minister of Foreign Affairs Børge Brende.
Jeg oppfordrer begge parter til å komme tilbake til forhandlingsbordet så snart som mulig, sier utenriksminister Børge Brende.
The talks also included representatives of civil society, other political parties and religious leaders.
Forhandlingene hadde deltakelse fra sivilt samfunn, andre politiske partier og religiøse ledere.
‘We condemn Riek Machar’s decision, and are also disappointed by the South Sudanese Government’s response.
- Vi fordømmer Riek Machars beslutning og er samtidig skuffet over regjeringens reaksjon.
The people of South Sudan deserve better.
Sør-Sudans befolkning fortjener bedre enn dette.
The hostilities and the threat of famine make it essential for all parties to behave responsibly.
