Small airports and other vital services will be closed. For this reason, it is necessary with measures directed directly to the districts, he tells the newspaper.

No local hospital will be closed

Among the measures proposed by the Sp program committee to create growth in distri

ktene, are: reopening of police stations in the municipalities that request it, guarantee that no local hospitals will be closed, reduced corporate tax for district businesses, NOK 12 billion for so-called rural growth agreements, local wind energy taxes, reduced tourist VAT and 100% band coverage wide either through 5G or fiber.

Positive right to various SP proposals

The leader of the Conservative Party work program, District Minister and Digitization, Linda Hofstad Helleland, is positive about part of Sp’s proposal. She points out that the government is already working on several of the proposals.

In addition, she believes that it will be difficult to obtain a majority for SP district policy with the MDGs on the team, from which a new red-green government will likely have to seek support.
