The Government also proposes to reduce the tax portion of the municipalities’ income.
Regjeringa foreslår dessutan å redusere skattedelen av kommunane sine inntekter.
In 2009, as many as 364 municipalities had tax income below the national average.
Heile 364 kommunar hadde i 2009 skatteinntekter under landsgjennomsnittet.
These municipalities are evenly distributed across the country.
Desse kommunane er jamt fordelt ut over landet.
In order to help these municipalities, 400 million kroner of the growth in unrestricted income will go to municipalities that lose more than 100 kroner per capita from the changes in the income system.
For å hjelpe desse kommunane, skal 400 millionar kroner av veksten i frie inntekter gå til kommunar som taper meir enn 100 kroner per innbyggjar på endringane i inntektssystemet.
This will be a permanent scheme until the new revision of the income system.
Dette blir ei fast ordning fram til ny revisjon av inntektssystemet.
“When you include the growth in the municipalities’ unrestricted income in 2011, no municipality will have its income reduced from 2010 to 2011,” says Liv Signe Navarsete.
- Når ein tek med veksten i kommunane sine frie inntekter i 2011, vil ingen kommune få redusert sine inntekter frå 2010 til 2011, seier Liv Signe Navarsete.

Fiscal Measures to Limit the Economic Downturn
20 milliarder kroner til nye tiltak for arbeid
In a proposition to the Storting (Parliament) the Norwegian Government proposes amendments to the 2009 Fiscal Budget.
Regjeringen legger i dag fram forslag til endringer i statsbudsjettet for 2009.
However, the financial crisis and the global economic downturn have intensified the turnaround.
Omslaget er imidlertid blitt forsterket av den vanskelige situasjonen i finansmarkedene og den meget svake utviklingen i internasjonal økonomi.
A wide range of businesses is now hit by weaker domestic and international demand.
Et bredt spekter av norske virksomheter rammes nå av svakere etterspørsel fra norske og utenlandske markeder.
Economic policy cannot prevent such an economic setback, but the proposed fiscal stimulus package will dampen the increase in unemployment, says finance minister Kristin Halvorsen.
Den økonomiske politikken kan ikke forhindre et tilbakeslag i norsk økonomi, men med denne pakken bidrar Regjeringen til å dempe økningen i arbeidsledigheten, sier finansminister Kristin Halvorsen.
The GDP of Norway’s main trading partners is expected to fall by 1½ per cent in 2009.
For 2009 forventes det nå en nedgang i BNP på 1½ prosent for våre handelspartnere.
The Norwegian economy is also affected by the financial crisis.
Også norsk økonomi påvirkes av denne utviklingen.
Employment is expected to decline by 1 per cent from 2008 to 2009, and unemployment is expected to increase from approximately 2½ per cent in 2008 to 3½ per cent in 2009.
På årsbasis et det anslått at AKU-ledigheten vil øke fra vel 2½ prosent i 2008 til om lag 3½ prosent i 2009.
The proposed fiscal stimulus package implies a very expansionary budget for 2009, both in a historical and an international context:
Tiltakspakken innebærer at budsjettet for 2009 nå framstår som meget ekspansivt både i en historisk og en internasjonal sammenheng:
This is the most expansionary budget in more than 30 years.
Dette er en kraftigere stimulans enn i noe annet enkeltår på over 30 år.
The underlying growth in Fiscal Budget expenditures from 2008 to 2009 is now estimated at 6¼ per cent.
Den underliggende realveksten i utgiftene på statsbudsjettet anslås til 6¼ prosent fra 2008 til 2009.
The proposed measures are estimated to increase Mainland GDP by ¾ percentage points in 2009.
Forslagene kan bidra til å øke BNP for Fastlands-Norge med rundt ¾ prosent i 2009.
The effects of the interest rate cuts, and the other monetary and liquidity policy measures, are not included in this estimate.
Virkningene av rentenedsettelsene og øvrige penge- og likviditetspolitiske tiltak kommer i tillegg til dette.
