Progress Party Bard Hoksrud the Secretary of State Communications and Abelia Paul Chaffey in Local Government. It bodes well for the welfare technology and broadband policy.
None of the ministers have any ICT or telecommunications policy profile. But it has at least two State Secretaries which were announced yesterday – Bard Hoksrud and Paul Chaffey. While Hoksrud clearly the parliamentary politician who spoke the most and strongest of Broadband (maybe next Per Sandberg and Per Olav Lundteigen) some Chaffey most focus on welfare technology. It is confirmed that it is the Ministry that is responsible for broadband policy.
Bard Hoksrud have as transport policy spokesman in Progress long been engaged in the telecommunications area and has the latest on Cable Norwegian conference last spring called for a far more aggressive broadband policy. Something he now has a solid foundation for both collaboration and document its policy platform. Despite Hoksrud is also a member of Parliament, he brought in the Ministry to provide the transport policy experience minister even Ketil Solvik Olsen missing.
Politically, Paul Chaffey made a political glide from two periods in Parliament by voting for AP and then Right. He has led the organization NHO Abelia recent years. He can not be said to have distinguished himself greatly telecommunications policy, but in Abelia, he has had a strong focus on welfare technology which have largely been a municipal task subject to Government and modernization Ministry.
We set some lines from an Abelia statement about welfare technology:
• Increase the use of innovative public procurement in municipalities through a mitigating subsidy of 500 million / year to ensure predictable demand for welfare technology from the public
• Introduce tax credit for individuals who want to prepare for a safe and active aging for procurement of welfare technology solutions in their own homes
• Establish goals for skills to professionalize the purchasing function in municipal and winnings major acquisitions of technology and welfare services
• Open research and innovation measures in the health and care sector
• Increase the supply of public venture capital in the early phase in line with Almi in Sweden
• Provide SSB mission to provide quality assurance statistics for the health and welfare technology to monitor trends over time and setting national goals for Norwegian industrial development and export.
In other words a lack of ambition in welfare technology. The old government has allocated 34 million for the purpose. Abelia under Chaffey management wanted recently tilkuddsordning 500 million.
