About this bill
Committee rejects proposal to create New Railways division
The Standing Committee on Transport and Communications examined a private member's bill from six MPs proposing the creation of New Railways as a division within the state infrastructure company responsible for roads, with authority over railway development and operations. The committee recommends that the Storting reject the proposal. A majority from the Labour Party, Conservative Party, Centre Party, Red Party, and Green Party backed rejection, while Progress Party members supported it.
