Last week, the report from the committee that investigated the attack in Oslo last summer was presented.  It describes PST and the police&#8217;s handling of the terror, as well as the time before and after.  The report concludes that the attack in central Oslo could have been averted if PST had handled and assessed information that the service had in a different way.  Two men were killed, nine people suffered gunshot wounds and a further 25 people suffered other injuries in the chaos that followed the attack, before the perpetrator was overpowered.  The police security service (PST) receives criticism on a number of points in the report.  This is the background for the Minister of Justice and Emergency Emilie Enger Mehl (Sp) to give an account of the matter to the Storting at 10 o&#8217;clock today.  Emilie Enger Mehl says she takes the findings in the report very seriously.  Photo: Martin Leigland \/ news &#8211; Must clean up!  The report is listed as item number 1 on Wednesday&#8217;s meeting schedule.  There will be a debate right after Mehl&#8217;s speech, before the Storting will consider how the case will be followed up further.  The case can be sent to the justice committee or to the Storting&#8217;s control and constitution committee, where cases often end up that could end up with criticism of the government or a minister.  As of today, there is no basis for a no-confidence motion against the minister, Conservative leader Erna Solberg stated to VG at the weekend.  But then she followed up by stating that it is the handling going forward that will determine Mehl&#8217;s position: &#8211; It is the follow-up of the report that determines whether I have confidence or not.  The government must clean this up, said Solberg.  Expecting action SV was quick to demand an explanation from Mehl in the Storting on the matter.  &#8211; It would be completely unsustainable if the Storting took a summer break without such a shocking report being discussed with a single word here in the Storting.  It is quite serious what we have been told in white &#8211; that the terrorist attack could have been avoided, says justice policy spokesperson Andreas Sjalg Unneland in SV to news.  REQUIRES ANSWERS: SV&#8217;s Andreas Unneland, H\u00f8yre&#8217;s Sveinung Stensland and Frps Per Willy Amundsen expect clear answers from the Minister of Justice.  Photo: Terje Pedersen \/ NTB He says the report from last week points to several things that are unfortunately recognizable from the Gj\u00f8rv commission, which investigated the 22 July terror attack.  &#8211; It is about the resources not finding each other, that the internal communication is too poor, that the information is left lying around and does not arrive where it should, says the SV representative.  &#8211; It is both a cultural problem, but also a problem with the structure of the police.  So here there must be clear measures for how to fix this, he continues.  &#8211; Rivalry Justice policy spokesperson Sveinung Stensland in H\u00f8yre also expects a clear follow-up of what is in the report.  &#8211; There are a number of serious findings that must be closed, and those findings are so bad that they must be dealt with immediately, says .  &#8211; What is most serious, as you see it?  &#8211; The lack of communication between the services that comes to light &#8211; that PST does not take intelligence information from the E-service seriously &#8211; that is the most serious.  It looks like there is some kind of rivalry between the various secret services, who are there to look after us all.  It is actually impossible to live with, says Stensland.  &#8211; How is the Conservative Party&#8217;s confidence in the Minister of Justice at the moment?  &#8211; The Conservative Party&#8217;s trust in the Minister of Justice is as it has been.  We must measure people by their actions, and what they achieve.  In this case, the way this is followed up will be decisive for how we view the Minister of Justice, says Stensland and continues: &#8211; Here the Minister of Justice has a golden opportunity to show action, not just lots of words, but actual action.  Want measures The most important thing is that the Minister of Justice and the government show that they take this very seriously, says Venstres Grunde Almeland.  He now asks Mehl to say what she herself intends to do.  &#8211; It is all well and good that she is asking PST and the Norwegian Police Directorate to present new measures.  Because there are a number of things that these bodies have to do.  But what we in Venstre and the whole queer movement have been saying for a year that it lacks, is that the Minister of Justice herself takes responsibility and says what she and the government intend to do.  MEASURES: Venstre&#8217;s Grunde Almeland says the Minister of Justice must tell what the government intends to do.  Photo: William Jobling \/ news &#8211; I look forward to the follow-up plan from the police, but we also need a plan for what measures the government will implement.  That has been missing until now, continues Almeland.  &#8211; What measures can we envisage?  &#8211; There are a number of things we have to uncover and put in place.  But we see that the cooperation between the various services has been too poor.  There we have to look at what steps need to be taken to strengthen that cooperation and strengthen trust between the various services, says Almeland.  &#8211; We must also look at the resource situation, of course, if required.  Then we also have to look at how the secret services are tracked.  Mehl: Serious picture When the Minister of Justice was interviewed by the press at the Storting before the weekend, she said that she expects the PST and the police to work on measures that can be &#8220;implemented immediately&#8221;.  &#8211; This report is serious.  It paints a serious picture, and especially the one that suggests that PST could possibly have prevented the attack, she told news last week.  &#8211; Do you trust those who lead these agencies?  &#8211; I have confidence in them now.  I feel that they take this very seriously.  REPORTER: Minister of Justice Emilie Enger Mehl will report to the Storting on the 25 June report at the start of the meeting on Wednesday.  There will then be a debate in the hall.  Photo: Terje Pedersen \/ NTB The head of the Justice Committee, Per-Willy Amundsen from the FRP, has clear expectations for the report that Mehl will give to the Storting today.  &#8211; We must have a clear minister of justice who can credibly show that she follows up the case in a good way.
