For party leader Une Bastholm, who has been elected from Akershus, there is an application for leave. Bastholm went on parental leave. Kristoffer Robin Haug attended as deputy.
There is no leave for the two representatives from Oslo. Both Lan Marie Berg and Rasmus Hansson had reported maturity. Besides, no goods were present for them.
– In short, because we considered it unnecessary. Rasmus had not been given care because he is on holiday. The session today was a formality, and we considered it sufficient that Kristoffer Robin Haug represented MDG in the Storting, says communications manager Nils Mørk to Avisa Oslo.
Mørk adds to NTB that the assessment was made in consultation with the Storting’s secretariat. Some other members of the Storting were also absent from the opening.
Roy Steffensen from Frp was one of the first to notice the absence from the entire MDG group. He has received an answer Twitter from Berg, who tells that she is ill.
The Storting will be formally constituted on 9 October, while King Harald will hold the solemn opening of the new Storting on 11 October.
