Summary

MPs Grunde Almeland, Guri Melby, and Abid Raja proposed that the government present a concrete and binding action plan for biodiversity showing how Norway will meet its commitments under the nature agreement. The Standing Committee on Energy and the Environment divided along party lines: members from the Socialist Left Party, Red Party, Green Party, and Liberal Party backed the proposal, while members from the Labour Party, Progress Party, Conservative Party, and Centre Party recommended rejection, arguing that the government had already presented a nature report in autumn 2024 and implementation work is underway.
