Now, Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre is calling an extraordinary digital information meeting with the Labour Party's parliamentary group about the ongoing struggle, according to Norwegian media. Before that, the government will address the issue at a conference in the afternoon, but no decisions are expected on the matter on Thursday.

The Labour Party (Ap) wants to adopt parts of the package, but several people within the Centre Party (Sp) have stated that they want to leave the government cooperation if Ap pushes it through.

No decisions are planned during the extraordinary meeting, but there will be an opportunity to ask questions to Støre and Energy Minister Terje Aasland.
