Statistics Norway : annual report 2009

2009 was an eventful year for Statistics Norway, as for many others. The financial crisis, climate negotiations, swine flu and parliamentary elections regularly made the headlines. In many of these areas, Statistics Norway has a key role to play, as a source of knowledge on the facts and correlations. From its well-resourced position and based on solid efforts from our many skilled employees, last year Statistics Norway expanded the production of statistics and analyses and took further steps towards the modernisation of the organisation.
