Question to be answered in writing regarding the Olympic Games in China and human rights 
Utenriksminister Støres svar på et spørsmål fra stortingsrepresentant Molvær Grimstad (KrF) om Kina, OL og menneskerettighetene
With this in view, Norway should be at the forefront of efforts to increase international pressure on China. 
Norge må her være i front for å styrke det internasjonale presset mot Kina.
In the media, the Minister of Foreign Affairs has ruled out a boycott of the games, while the Minister of Culture and Church Affairs does not exclude the possibility of boycotting the opening ceremony. 
Utenriksministeren har i media utelukket boikott av lekene, mens kultur- og kirkeministeren holder døren åpen for boikott av åpningsseremonien.
What is the Government’s position on a boycott, and will the Minister of Foreign Affairs take the initiative for a campaign to mobilise opposition to China’s gross violations of human rights? 
Hva er regjeringens syn på boikott, og vil utenriksministeren ta initiativ til en internasjonal kampanje for å mobilisere motstand mot Kinas grove brudd på menneskerettighetene?
The Foreign Minister’s reply: We need to view our relations with China from a long-term perspective. 
Utenriksministerens svar: I vårt forhold til Kina må vi ha et langsiktig perspektiv.
China has become, and will remain, a key actor on the international stage. 
Kina er blitt og vil forbli en svært sentral aktør på den internasjonale scenen.
It is in Norway’s interest to have contact with China in a broad range of fields. 
Det er i Norges interesse å ha en bred kontaktflate med Kina.
This forms the basis for the Government’s strategy on China. 
Dette ligger til grunn for regjeringens Kina-strategi.
The promotion of human rights and democracy is one of the main pillars of this strategy. 
Menneskerettigheter og fremme av demokrati er en av hovedpilarene i denne Kina-strategien.
Here we have particularly emphasised the development of the rule of law, freedom of organisation and association, freedom of expression, women’s rights, the rights of prisoners and detainees, minority rights, freedom of religion and efforts to abolish the death penalty. 
I dette arbeidet legger vi særlig vekt på styrking av rettsstatsprinsipper, forenings- og organisasjonsfrihet, ytringsfrihet, kvinners rettigheter, fangers og anholdtes rettigheter, minoriteters rettigheter, religionsfrihet og arbeidet mot dødsstraff.
During my visit to China in January this year, I raised in particular China’s extensive use of the death penalty and the worrying developments regarding freedom of expression and belief. 
Under mitt besøk til Kina i januar i år tok jeg spesielt opp Kinas utstrakte bruk av dødsstraff og den bekymringsfulle utviklingen i situasjonen for ytringsfrihet og trosfrihet.
We cannot accept that journalists and human rights activists are imprisoned for speaking out or for their convictions. 
Vi kan ikke akseptere at journalister og menneskerettighetsforsvarere fengsles på grunn av sine ytringer eller sin overbevisning.
It was against this backdrop that State Secretary Johansen raised the sentence against human rights activist Hu Jia with China’s Ambassador to Norway last week. 
Dette var også bakgrunnen for at statssekretær Johansen i forrige uke tok opp dommen til menneskerettighetsaktivisten Hu Jia med Kinas ambassadør til Norge.
Recently, Norway’s Ambassador to China raised the concerns of the Norwegian Government – and the Norwegian people – about the situation in Tibet directly with China’s President. 
Nylig tok også Norges ambassadør til Kina opp regjeringens – og det norske folks – bekymring for Tibet, direkte med Kinas president.
At the same time, we note that progress is being made in other areas, such as employee rights. 
Samtidig kan vi registrere at det har vært fremgang på andre områder, som arbeidstakeres rettigheter.
This is a stepping stone in the efforts to enhance security under the law and strengthen human rights for individual Chinese citizens. 
Dette vil utgjøre en byggestein i innsatsen for å styrke den enkelte kinesers rettssikkerhet og beskyttelse av menneskerettighetene.
From a historical perspective, the human rights situation has improved, although much remains to be done. 
Sett i et historisk perspektiv er situasjonen for menneskerettighetene bedret, selv om mye gjenstår.
We should also note that millions upon millions of people have been lifted out of poverty. 
Vi må også merke oss at millioner på millioner av mennesker er blitt løftet ut av fattigdom.
Our broad cooperation with China gives us more opportunities for open and critical dialogue. 
Det brede samarbeidet med Kina gir oss større rom for åpen og kritisk dialog.
For many years, there has been broad political agreement in Norway that dialogue is the best way of promoting a more equitable society for all. 
Det har gjennom mange år vært bred politisk enighet i Norge om at dialog er det beste virkemiddelet for å kunne bidra til utvikling av et mer rettferdig samfunn for alle.
And we will continue to do so. 
Dette vil vi fortsette med.
The Government hopes that beyond being a successful sporting event, the Olympic Games will be a catalyst for greater interest in and knowledge about China. 
Regjeringen ønsker at de olympiske leker i Kina skal bli en døråpner for økt fokus og kunnskap om Kina, i tillegg til et vellykket sportsarrangement.
The pens, PCs and cameras of the more than 30 000 journalists who are expected to attend the games will ensure that China’s strengths and weaknesses are brought to the fore. 
Gjennom penn, PC og kamera til de 30 000 journalister som forventes å komme til lekene, vil Kinas sterke og svake sider stå frem.
This in itself is positive. 
Dette er positivt.
In politics it is rarely wise to rule out options in advance. 
I politikken vil det ikke være riktig å fraskrive seg virkemidler på forhånd.
Norway and many other countries in the world are following developments in China closely. 
Norge og mange land i verden følger utviklingen i Kina nøye.
We are best served by a broad, committed, honest and critical dialogue with the Chinese authorities. 
Vi er best tjent med en bred, engasjert, ærlig og kritisk dialog med kinesiske myndigheter.
Therefore, the Norwegian authorities have no plans to stay away from the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. 
Norske myndigheter har derfor ingen planer om å utebli fra åpningsseremonien under de olympiske leker.

Question: 
1137 (2006-2007)
With good cause. 
– Og med god grunn.
The facility constitutes a considerable danger to the marine ecosystem, and it is probably the greatest nuclear safety threat in our neighbouring areas. 
Anlegget representerer en betydelig fare for det marine økosystemet og det er antakeligvis den største atomsikkerhetsutfordringen vi har i våre nærområder.
For this reason, Andreyev Bay is one of our highest priorities in our nuclear safety cooperation with Russia. 
Derfor er også Andrejev-bukta en av våre fremste prioriteter i atomsikkerhetssamarbeidet med Russland.
Norway was the first country to focus on the need to clean up the facility. 
Norge var først ute med å sette fokus på behovet for å rydde opp i anlegget.
The planning of the first concrete measures started in 1997. 
Planlegging av de første konkrete tiltakene startet i 1997.
The first step was to drain the area round the storage tanks to prevent water from seeping in. 
Det første vi gjorde var å drenere området rundt lagertankene for å hindre vanninntrengning.
Our involvement helped to put the problem on the international agenda. 
Vårt engasjement bidro til å sette problemet på den internasjonale dagsorden.
During the past three to four years, broad international cooperation has been established with a view to improving the situation and removing the spent nuclear fuel. 
De siste 3-4 årene er det etablert et bredt internasjonalt samarbeid for å bedre situasjonen og fjerne det brukte brenslet.
The UK, Sweden, Italy and the environmental fund under the Northern Dimension are all participating in this cooperation. 
Storbritannia, Sverige, Italia og miljøfondet under Den nordlige dimensjon - samarbeidet deltar.
The work is being coordinated by an international working group chaired by Russia. 
For å koordinere arbeidet er det opprettet en internasjonal arbeidsgruppe under ledelse av Russland.
Our involvement at Andreyev Bay includes close cooperation with Russian supervisory authorities on radiation protection, development of criteria for the clean-up and emergency preparedness. 
Vårt engasjement i Andrejev-bukta omfatter også et tett samarbeid med russiske tilsynsmyndigheter om strålevern, kriterier for opprydding og beredskapsaspekter.
Spent nuclear fuel will not be removed until a comprehensive impact assessment has been carried out and has been approved by the supervisory authorities. 
Fjerning av brukt brensel vil ikke bli gjennomført før en omfattende konsekvensvurdering er utført og godkjent av tilsynsmyndighetene.
According to current plans, the spent fuel can be transported from the site in 2013-2014. 
Med nåværende planer kan brenslet transporteres ut i 2013-2014.
This work will be led by the UK. 
Dette arbeidet vil bli ledet av Storbritannia.
Before this can take place, the infrastructure at and round the facility needs to be improved. 
Før dette kan skje må infrastrukturen på og rundt anlegget rustes opp.
Norway has allocated about NOK 120 million for this work over the past ten years. 
Vi har bevilget omlag 120 millioner kroner til dette de siste ti årene.
We have also physically secured the area by providing fencing, camera surveillance and a guard booth, and have provided assistance for comprehensive investigation of ground conditions in the area. 
Vi har også sikret området fysisk med gjerde og kamerakontroll og etablert vaktbod samt bidratt til omfattende grunnundersøkelser i området.
We are currently investigating and repairing the quay facilities in order to allow the spent fuel to be transported out by sea. 
Nå undersøker og istandsetter vi kaianlegget slik at det brukte brenselet kan fraktes ut sjøveien.
In an article published in the Russian specialist journal Atomnaya energiya in July 2006, Russian scientists discuss the pollution situation at Andreyev Bay based on material obtained during investigations Norway helped to finance in the period 2002-2004. 
I en artikkel i det russiske fagtidsskriftet ”Atomnia Energia”, publisert i juli 2006, omtaler russiske forskere forurensningssituasjonen i Andrejev-bukta.
The information published by Aftenposten was based on the article in Atomnaya energiya. 
Opplysningene i Aftenposten baserer seg på artikkelen i fagtidsskriftet.
The Norwegian Radiation Protection Authority became aware of this article and brought it to Bellona’s knowledge in the middle of May. 
Strålevernet ble kjent med denne artikkelen, og orienterte Bellona om den i midten av mai.
What is new in the article is the information on the threshold values for when such a criticality could arise. 
Det som er nytt i artikkelen er opplysninger om grenseverdier for når slik kritikalitet kan oppstå.
The greatest risk of a criticality arising is during removal of the fuel. 
Den største risikoen for kritikalitet oppstår når man flytter/fjerner brenslet.
This phenomenon is not unique to Andreyev Bay. 
Fenomenet er ikke unikt for Andrejev-bukta.
The information published in the media regarding an explosion and its consequences for Northern Europe was not taken directly from the report mentioned in the article. 
Opplysningene som kom frem i media om eksplosjon med medfølgende konsekvenser for Nord-Europa er ikke hentet direkte fra den omtalte rapporten.
Norway will continue to promote nuclear safety cooperation in Russia, and the matter will be discussed on a number of occasions in the time ahead. 
Norge vil fortsatt være en pådriver i atomsikkerhetssamarbeidet i Russland, og saksfeltet vil bli drøftet i en rekke anledninger framover.
The Prime Minister will raise the issue during his visit to Russia this week. 
Statsministeren tar opp saken under sitt besøk til Russland denne uken.
Russian openness as regards nuclear facilities will be an important theme. 
Russisk åpenhet rundt atominstallasjonene vil være et viktig tema.
I myself will soon be meeting my Russian counterpart. 
Selv møter jeg snart min russiske kollega.
The further efforts at Andreyev Bay will be an important theme at next week’s meeting of the Joint Norwegian-Russian Nuclear Safety Commission, which will take place on 1 August. 
Den videre innsatsen i Andrejev-bukta er et viktig tema i neste møte i den norsk-russiske atomkommisjonen, som finner sted 1. august.
At present, good progress is being made in the nuclear safety cooperation with Russia. 
Det er nå svært god framgang i atomsikkerhetssamarbeidet med Russland.
This is due both to the fact that the G8 countries have become heavily involved and to the fact that Russia is dedicating considerable resources to these efforts. 
Det skyldes både at G8-landene har engasjert seg tungt, og at Russland selv legger betydelige ressurser inn i arbeidet.
Several important problems will be resolved within the next two to four years. 
Viktige problemer vil være løst i løpet av de nærmeste 2-4 år.
This applies, for example, to the dismantling of decommissioned submarines and the elimination of radioactive energy sources in the 180 lighthouses along the northwestern coast of Russia. 
Det gjelder f. eks. opphugging av de utrangerte ubåtene og fjerning av strålefarlige energikilder i de i alt 180 fyrlyktene langs den nordvest-russiske kysten.

15 areas have been singled out for potential strategic environmental assessment (SEA). 
Det er pekt ut 15 potensielle områder for videre utredning.
The report is prepared by a group of directorates consisting of the Norwegian Water Resources and Energy Directorate (NVE), the Norwegian Directorate for Nature Management (DN), the Directorate for Fisheries (FD), the Norwegian Coastal Administration (KV), and the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate (OD). 
Rapporten er utarbeidet av en direktoratsgruppe bestående av Norges vassdrags- og energidirektorat (NVE), Direktorat for naturforvaltning (DN), Fiskeridirektoratet (FD), Kystverket (KV) og Oljedirektoratet (OD).
