MPs Bjørn Arild Gram, Erling Sande, and Geir Pollestad have introduced a bill to simplify the SkatteFUNN tax credit scheme. The proposers argue that small and medium-sized businesses face disproportionately high auditor fees and administrative burden, particularly on smaller projects. They call on the government to consider replacing the auditor attestation requirement with a risk-based control model and to conduct a broader review of the scheme's regulations.
