On the basis of the information that has appeared in the press, as well as the statements of the Prime Minister himself, the police have decided to launch an investigation related to a possible violation of infection control regulations.
Write the police in a press release.
They write that the investigation will clarify what actually happened on whether this may be a violation of local or central regulations.

On Thursday night, Prime Minister Erna Solberg admitted that she broke infection control councils along with 13 family members when they celebrated her 60th birthday in Geilo over winter break.
Police: It is too early to say who is being investigated
GDE Buskerud leader Øyvind Aass tells VG that the investigation was established on the basis of media coverage and the Prime Minister’s statements last night.
– We have now decided to initiate an investigation based on media information and the Prime Minister’s television appearance last night.
Who are you investigating?
– It’s too early to say anything about it. Now we must conduct an investigation and the prosecution must decide whether to press charges after the investigation is complete. We haven’t gotten to that point yet, Aas tells VG.
Have you received opinions from individuals?
– To me, the reviews are unknown, but it is conceivable that there are reviews that are.
Regardless, the police are now launching an investigation, Aas says.
Do you have a time frame for research?
– We do not have a temporal perspective, now it is up to the Prosecutor’s Office to draw up a plan. But we aim to reach an early settlement both for the good of the parties involved and for the public interest, Aas says.
How many resources have been reserved for research?
– We still don’t know anything about resources in the case, that’s what we are planning now, says Aas.

Erna Solberg and her family broke infection control rules: – I was wrong correctly
According to Solberg, there were more than ten pieces to dine together two nights in a row in Geilo:
- Friday night the Solberg family had reserved a table at the Hallingstuene restaurant. A total of 13 people were present. According to the Prime Minister himself, they were spread over three different tables and sat at a good distance. “We thought this dinner was within the regulations, but no,” writes the Prime Minister, who was not present at this dinner because she was in Ullevål hospital.
- Saturday night Erna Solberg and 13 family members (a total of 14) met in an apartment to eat sushi. “The plan was for everyone to come and stock up and then spread out again in the two apartments. But instead, they all stayed in our apartment, ”writes the Prime Minister.
Sorry on facebook
In a longer Facebook post, Erna Solberg writes about the mistakes she made in the mountains, even when there were 14 family members in one apartment.
– There are four too many. We shouldn’t have had him like this, and he should have stopped him. I didn’t and I can only ask for forgiveness.
Furthermore, she writes that she, as prime minister, “has a special responsibility to follow the rules and recommendations that apply.”
– Now I have made a real mistake. We should never have done this, Solberg told VG ruefully on Thursday.
