NORWAY 20 Counties 430 Municipalities 79 Regional Councils - How about the future? 79 Regional Councils Regional Councils in Norway Frå regjeringen: http://www.regjeringen.no/nn/dep/krd/Dokument/proposisjonar-og-meldingar/stortingsmeldingar/20042005/stmeld-nr-25-2004-2005-/12.html?id=407434 3.1 Allment interkommunalt samarbeid (regionråd o. l.) Praktisk talt alle kommunar i Noreg deltar i eit breitt, interkommunalt samarbeid med nabokommunar i form av regionråd. Telemarksforsking har gjennomført fleire undersøkingar av omfanget av regionråd, og har nytta desse kriteria for at ei samarbeidsordning skal bli kalla regionråd: Det er eit politisk samarbeidsorgan mellom nabokommunar der minimum ordførarane er med. Organet har eigne vedtekter. Organet har mange slags saker som arbeidsfelt (er ikkje sektororgan).

Challenges of small municipalities in Norway How to take care of the broad variety of tasks in small municipalities? How to recruit the right persons – amount and qualifications? Too few inhabitants with higher education (especially women at the age of 20-39)

Less people in rural areas (centralization) …continued: Less people in rural areas (centralization) Building a strong and attractive region for young and well educated families Adequate transportation and infrastructure between living areas and jobs

The solution for the region of Nordmøre?

= ORKidé Nordmøre: 62 000 inhabitants 11 municipalities: Averøy : 5.600 Aure : 3.500 Gjemnes : 2.500 Eide : 3.500 Tingvoll : 3.100 Smøla : 2.200 Halsa : 1.600 Rindal : 2.000 Kristiansund : 24.200 Sunndal : 7.000 Surnadal : 6.000 = ORKidé

ORKidé: Formalized cooperation between 11 municipalities at Nordmøre – established in 1990 ( - in 1990 there were 13 . We have had 2 amalgamations ) Mayor and Chief Executive from each municipality meet at least three times a year, bringing important questions to the table. Meet in the different municipalities. Discuss common challenges and possibilities: Responding to national hearings Projects concerning the whole area Regional plans

Consensus The principle of consensus is the way of working to get things done. The core challenge: If we can not agree, we do not get things done! Consensus is what gives strength!

Practical work Common goals and strategies 4 year plan Service cooperation across borders Municipalities pay according to amount of inhabitants for the membership Projects are financed separately

Projects: ICT ORKidé Strategic plan of commerce for the whole area Child Protection office for three municipalities Areal planning of the coastal areas Infrastructural projects (roads and tunnels)

NORDMØRE – a united region to meet the future!
