The Standing Committee on Scrutiny and Constitutional Affairs presents a special report from the EOS Committee—the Storting's oversight body for intelligence, surveillance, and security services—finding that the domestic intelligence service (E-tjenesten) stored content data in violation of the Intelligence Services Act. The EOS Committee criticizes the service for storing email subject lines in its metadata storage system and for failing to act swiftly enough to ensure lawful storage, despite both the committee and the service agreeing that email subject lines constitute content data that should not be stored in this manner.
