After establishing that tariff revenues from concluded transport agreements were generating a return at least equal to the stipulated return on investments in most parts of Gassled, the Ministry of Petroleum and Energy adopted amendments to the tariff regulations in June 2013.
Etter at det ble konstatert at tariffinntekter fra inngåtte transportavtaler minst gir en slik avkastning som forutsatt for investeringene i de fleste deler av Gassled, vedtok Olje- og energidepartementet endringer i tarifforskriften i juni 2013.
New, lower tariffs were set for new transport agreements relating to these parts of Gassled for the period from 1 October 2016 onwards.
Det ble fastsatte nye, lavere tariffer for nye transportavtaler for transport fra 1. oktober 2016 i disse delene av Gassled.
The amendment does not affect tariffs in previously concluded agreements, which were maintained.
Vedtaket berører ikke tariffene i allerede inngått transportavtaler, de ble videreført.
The new tariffs will continue to generate a reasonable profit in Gassled.
De nye tariffene sikrer at deltakerne i Gassled fortsatt får en rimelig fortjeneste.
The main objective of the new tariffs is to facilitate further exploration, development and production of petroleum resources throughout the Norwegian Continental Shelf.
Hovedformålet med de nye, lavere tariffene er å legge til rette for ytterligere leting, utbygging og produksjon av petroleumsressursene på hele den norske kontinentalsokkelen.
The new tariffs are in line with established regulatory principles and longstanding resource management practice.
De nye tariffene videreførte etablerte reguleringsprinsipper og langvarig forvaltningspraksis.
Four of the companies participating in Gassled – Njord Gas Infrastructure AS, Solveig Gas Norway AS, Silex Gas Norway AS and Infragas Norge AS – brought proceedings against the State, represented by the Ministry of Petroleum and Energy, claiming an invalidity declaration in respect of the amending regulations and that the State is liable in damages.
De fire selskapene Njord Gas Infrastructure AS, Solveig Gas Norway AS, Silex Gas Norway AS og Infragas Norge AS, som har deltakerandeler i Gassled, anla rettssak mot staten ved Olje- og energidepartementet med krav om at endringsforskriften er ugyldig, og at staten er erstatningspliktig.

Bill Gates, Co-chair of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and Norwegian Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg met in Oslo today.
Bill Gates, en av styrelederne av Bill og Melinda Gates- stiftelsen, og statsminister Jens Stoltenberg møttes i Oslo i dag.
The topic for the meeting was how to further scale up the efforts to immunize children in poor countries.
Tema for møtet var å styrke arbeidet for vaksinering av barn i fattige land.
Bill Gates, Co-chair of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and Norwegian Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg met in Oslo today.
Bill Gates, en av styrelederne av Bill og Melinda Gates-stiftelsen, og statsminister Jens Stoltenberg møttes i Oslo i dag.
"Norway is a global leader in its commitment to development aid and Norwegians should feel proud of their generosity,” said Gates.
- Norge er en global leder innenfor utviklingsarbeid og nordmenn bør være stolte av sin sjenerøsitet, sier Gates.
Jens Stoltenberg commented that “I am very pleased to work with Bill Gates and the Gates Foundation to get more financing for immunization.
- Jeg er veldig glad for å samarbeide med Bill Gates og Gates-stiftelsen for å få bedre finansiering for vaksiner.
They bring an impressive drive, innovation and efficiency to development aid.
Engasjement, innovasjon og effektivitet kjennetegner Gates' tilnærming til utviklingsarbeid.
Immunization is the most effective public health tool.
Vaksinering er det mest effektive verktøyet for folkehelse.
Therefore, more countries should contribute and many countries should invest more in immunization.
Derfor burde flere land bidra og flere land burde legge mer penger i vaksinering.
The meeting next month can be a milestone for commitments if all countries seize the opportunity.”
Møtet i neste måned kan bli en milepæl for vaksineringsarbeidet, hvis alle land griper muligheten, sier Stoltenberg.
GAVI Alliance, The global alliance for vaccines and immunization, was founded in 2000 with initial support from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and Norway.
GAVI ble grunnlagt i 2000 med støtte fra Bill og Melinda Gates-stiftelsen og Norge.
So far, GAVI has contributed to the immunization of 250 million children and, according to the World Health Organisation, saved more than 5 million lives.
Så langt har GAVI bidratt til vaksineringen av 250 millioner barn, og har ifølge Verdens helseorganisasjon reddet over fem millioner liv.
Immunization is imperative to save children’s lives and is an important part of reaching United Nations Millennium Development Goal 4, to reduce child mortality by two thirds by 2015 as compared to 1990.
Vaksinering er helt avgjørende for å redde barns liv, og avgjørende for å nå FNs tusenårsmål nummer 4, om å redusere barnedødelighet med to tredjedeler innen 2015 i forhold til 1990.
The development is positive, in 2010, 7.7 million children died in comparison to the 12 million who died in 1990.
Det døde 4,3 millioner færre barn i 2010 enn i 1990.

I am therefore delighted that we can put forward such a strong candidate for this important leadership position.
Jeg er derfor glad for at Norge kan fremme en så god kandidat som Dagfinn Høybråten til dette viktige ledervervet.

He has also been a Board member since 2009.
Han har også sittet som medlem av alliansens styre siden 2009.

Palestinske banker i Gaza måtte over helgen stenge som følge av israelske restriksjoner på pengeoverføringer til Gaza.
The banks do not have enough cash to pay salaries and make other payments.
Bankene har ikke tilstrekkelig kontantbeholdning til å utbetale lønninger og andre overføringer.
In total, half a million people are being affected during the Muslim Eid festival.
Totalt rammes en halv million mennesker i forbindelse med den muslimske Eid-høytiden.
“I am concerned about the restrictions Israel has imposed on cash transfers to Gaza,” said Foreign Minister Jonas Gahr Støre.

The payment of salaries to public sector employees is one of the most important contributions to maintaining economic activity in an isolated Gaza.
Lønnsutbetalingene til ansatte i offentlig sektor er et av de viktigste bidragene til å opprettholde økonomisk aktivitet i et isolert og avstengt Gaza.
“I call on the Israeli authorities to lift these restrictions immediately.
- Jeg appellerer til israelske myndigheter om å oppheve disse tiltakene øyeblikkelig.
I would like to underline the acute nature of the situation that has now been created,” said Mr Støre.
Jeg vil understreke det akutte i den situasjonen som nå er skapt, sier Støre.
Although Gaza has been controlled by Hamas since June 2007, the Government in Ramallah has continued to pay its employees in Gaza.
Selv om Gaza siden juni 2007 har vært kontrollert av Hamas, har regjeringen i Ramallah fortsatt å utbetale lønninger til sine ansatte i Gaza.

Repeated rocket attacks on Israel by militant Palestinian groups and Israel’s reactions are further exacerbating the civilian population’s precarious situation,” said Foreign Minister Jonas Gahr Støre.
Gjentatte rakettangrep mot Israel fra militante palestinske grupper og påfølgende israelske motreaksjoner forverrer en allerede svært vanskelig situasjon for sivilbefolkningen, sier utenriksminister Jonas Gahr Støre.

Utenriksministeren understreker at Norge på det sterkeste fordømmer de stadige rakettangrepene mot Israel og at Israel har rett til å forsvare seg og til å beskytte sin egen befolkning.
At the same time he urged Israel to show restraint, and stressed that Israel must refrain from any actions that could constitute a violation of international law.
Han oppfordrer samtidig Israel til å vise tilbakeholdenhet, og fremholder at Israel må avstå fra handlinger som kan stride mot folkeretten.
The Foreign Minister is concerned about Israel’s decision to further reduce supplies of necessary fuel and goods to Gaza.
Utenriksministeren er bekymret for Israels beslutning om å ytterligere kutte tilførselen av nødvendig drivstoff og innførsel av varer til Gaza.
“Israel must allow shipments of vital humanitarian assistance and goods to freely enter Gaza.
- Israel må sikre fri innførsel av livsnødvendig humanitær hjelp og varer til Gaza.
At the same time I urge the parties to actively seek a political solution to this difficult situation,” Mr Støre added.
