You're welcome!

Or that she, according to TV2 News Channel, has 25 million NOK in debt.

And to those who haven't done it already, well, one can read more about it in post 35.

About the finances of last year. What about this year?

The deficit is explained by the fact that the costs for securing the properties have spent NOK 87 million from funds that have been set aside from previous years, the Palace writes in a press release.

The annual report always tells about the year past. We never get to know about the current year, officially.

Now you can apply for a job at the castle - but there is one catch

That could be interesting to norwegians.

Signing a pledge of discretion? How can that be controversial anywhere else than in this newspaper?

It's normal to sign a pledge of discretion when working in say a retirement home. Or in many other instances where you have access to private information or the private lives of people, in a working capacity. Privacy of the client takes precedent.
Who would employ someone who is allowed to tell a number of details about your personal life afterwards?

And as for not being allowed to voice a public political opinion. That's the case in many positions.
It would be unfortunate if a senior employee for the political neutral head of state has a high political profile. - That would raise questions as to how politically neutral the head of state really is.

It's pretty much the same as the head of the police or a general has a high political profile. That's inconsistent with the work - for governments who often have very different political views of the police or military.

- So I think this article is an attempt to stir the pot - when there is nothing in the pot.

The Royal House increased its electricity bills by NOK 3.7 million in one year

It’s normal due to the hard winter.

Just to put into perspective, the royal court budget at today's exchange rate would be approximately 22.76 million US dollars.

Does that also include security and maintenance of the royal residences, or are those items placed in a separate budget as in some other European monarchies?
