The Storting has adopted a decision to adjust the remuneration for members of Parliament, the Prime Minister and government ministers by 4.4 per cent from 1 May 2026. The decision follows the recommendation of the Storting's remuneration committee, which bases its recommendation on the framework set by the frontline bargaining sector in order to ensure that remuneration follows the general wage development in society.
The Storting's remuneration committee is an organ appointed by the Storting's president that assesses and proposes the level of remuneration for members of the Storting, the Prime Minister and government ministers. The committee ensures that remuneration follows the general wage development in society, and uses the framework for the frontline negotiations as a main indicator. In 2026, the committee recommended an increase of 4.4 percent, which corresponds to the framework for the frontline negotiations. The Storting adopted this recommendation, meaning that the remuneration for members of the Storting increases to NOK 1 272 209 per year, the Prime Minister's to NOK 2 234 978, and the government ministers' to NOK 1 815 703. A minority consisting of the Red Party, the Socialist Left Party and the Green Party voted against the proposal. The minority proposed several alternative proposals, including abolishing the remuneration committee, introducing a ceiling on remuneration, and setting limits on how much remuneration can increase compared to ordinary wage earners, to prevent elected representatives from having a wage development that diverges from the rest of the population.
Hva er dette?
The Storting's remuneration committee is an independent committee appointed by the Storting's president. Their task is to assess and propose the annual remuneration for members of the Storting, the Prime Minister and the members of the Government, based on guidelines that emphasise the general wage development in Norway.
Hvorfor kom forslaget?
The proposal was made to adjust the remuneration in line with the general wage growth in society, so that the remuneration of the elected representatives follows the framework of the frontline negotiations, in accordance with the guidelines for the committee's work.
Hovedkonflikt
The conflict is between a majority who want to follow the established practice of adjusting remuneration in line with the frontline framework, and a minority who believe the remuneration is too high and want a new system to limit wage growth and reduce the differences between elected representatives and ordinary wage earners.
Hva betyr det?
The decision means that MPs and cabinet ministers will receive a 4.4% pay increase from 1 May 2026. This ensures that their remuneration keeps pace with the general wage growth in society, as defined through the frontline bargaining.
Slik har saken utviklet seg
The Storting adopted an increase of 4.4 per cent in remuneration for 2026, in line with the recommendation of the committee. Several alternative proposals from the minority to change the system for determining remuneration were voted down.
- 2026-05-29 · The Committee's recommendation
- 2026-06-11 · Committee treatment
- 2026-06-18 · Voting
By following the framework of the frontline industry, one ensures predictability and consistency with the general wage development, but one also maintains a wage level that the minority considers too high compared to the general population.
Verdt å følge med på: The debate about the remuneration committee's future mandate and whether a ceiling or other limitations should be introduced on remuneration in future settlements.
