Family and consumer policies changing on 1 July 
BLD: Endringer og nyheter fra 1. juli
Among them is an extension of the paid parental leave period reserved for fathers after a birth or adoption – the “father quota”. 
Blant annet utvides fedrekvoten i foreldrepermisjonen etter fødsel og adopsjon.
Several legislative changes affecting the Ministry of Children and Equality are due to take effect on 1 July. 
BLD: Endringer og nyheter fra 1. juli
In the case of adoptions, the benefit period will now total 41 weeks at full salary compensation or 51 weeks at 80%. 
Ved adopsjon blir foreldrepermisjonen heretter henholdsvis 41 og 51 uker.
The extension applies only to fathers who have a right to paid leave. 
Utvidelsen gjelder fedre med rett til fedrekvote.
In such cases the children are returned to a situation in which they may be subjected to violence and abuse, whether directly or as a witness. 
Dette innebærer at barna kommer tilbake til en situasjon hvor de kan bli utsatt for vold og overgrep, enten direkte eller som vitne.
At the same time, the official rate for living expenses has been reduced by NOK 290 kroner/month for children of all age groups. 
Samtidig reduseres satsen for barnets boutgifter med 290 kroner/måned i alle aldersgrupper.
Experience has shown many people are unaware of this “right of regret”, or angrerett. 
Erfaringene har vist at mange er ukjent med denne rettigheten.

While management of the fish resources today is intimately linked to the development of the law of the sea, it is a fact that the main features of Russian-Norwegian cooperation were in place prior to the introduction of the exclusive economic zones in 1977 and the completion of the United Nations Convention on the law of the sea in 1982.

Russian and Norwegian contributions to increased knowledge have not only been complementary, they have been in fact been united towards creating a better basis for the management of the fish stocks.
