Report Quality Analysis
- Report covered data from 2009.
- The report clearly states which revenue streams are included and which are not, and explains where readers can access more information, such as relevant legislation.
- It places petroleum revenues in the context of Norway's broader economy, which is good practice.
- The summary offers comparisons with the previous year's data, and includes tables showing which agencies receive the various revenue streams. Payments to pension funds are also mentioned, but without a full explanation.
- The report does a good job ensuring that all SOE-related flows are captured, reconciled and clearly explained.
- Norway has a perfect score on regularity, though its timeliness could improve.
