The Norwegian Opera & Ballet is wholly owned by the state and subordinate to the Ministry of Culture. In June, her friend Renate Larsen was appointed to the board of the Opera, reports Aftenposten. Two days ago Nettavisen reported that Trettebergstuen had given board positions to two former Ap colleagues. Trettebergstuen has called a press conference on Friday at 09.30 to comment on its competence. Thomas Breen was appointed board member of Norsk Tipping in April last year, and Sylvia Brustad was appointed chairman of Norsk Tipping in April 2023, according to the newspaper. The directorships must be worth NOK 278,000 and NOK 152,600 respectively. Earlier this week it became known that Minister of Education Tonje Brenna (Ap) gave a board position to a good friend Frode Elgesem. She later declared herself incompetent to Elgesem and apologized for the matter.
