The ministry has previously explained that he asked for an assessment of the ownership since the ministry had regulatory responsibility for the sector in which Telenor operates. After an internal assessment in November 2021, Gram concluded that he was incompetent, and sold the shares. According to TV2, Gram sold the Telenor shares on 1 December 2021 for NOK 163,800. The amount corresponds to the number of shares Gram now states to have sold. Gram’s share ownership in Telenor is explained in a letter from the Ministry of Local Government and District Affairs to the control committee on 1 September this year. Afterwards, the committee asked Gram to specify exactly how many shares he owned in Telenor. In the letter from 1 September, it only appears that the minister owned “some” shares in the company.
