Negotiations have now taken place in Storting. While SV, Rødt and MDG favored more redistribution to smaller boats, parties on the right opposed taking quotas away from larger ones.

– We have clarified the necessary questions that affected the fishing industry. I would like to commend the parties for their willingness to reach an agreement on this issue, says Mayor Wilfred Nordlund.

Both Frp, Venstre and KrF emphasize that it is important to have a broad agreement to develop a forecast for the fishing industry.

Alfred Bjorlow, the Liberal Party's business policy spokesman, believes the government has now found solutions to better secure jobs in the sea fishing fleet than those presented in January.

He points out that now it is the sea fishing fleet that uses Norway's third country quota in other countries' zones, and conventional sea fishing vessels are kept out of the internal redistribution of quota between large and small vessels in the coastal fishing fleet.

Hanson believes the government has failed. He believes the deal with the franchise ensures more fish for the offshore fishing fleet, less emissions and less settlement along the coast.

– Unbelievable

SV vice-president Torgeir Knag Fylkesnes says it is “unthinkable” that the ruling parties have gone to the right and accuses the government of breaking promises.

Now they're doing the opposite, says Filgesnes.

– It's unbelievable, he says.

– A reinforcement

The Fisheries Minister completely disagreed with the criticism.

– In fact, it means strengthening the smallest coastal fleet. The agreement also included the introduction of ownership restrictions on the coastal fleet. It's a good precautionary policy, says Mirseth, which will prevent growth where allocations are pooled in too few hands.

Rødt believes the government is failing miserably and reacts to the fact that they are not allowed to participate in the negotiations.

– It's incredibly disappointing that the government closed the door on us and desperately tried to win a majority with the right, rather than following the signals of their own voters in the general election, says Geir Jørgensen, the party's fisheries policy spokesman.

He believes the deal does not respond to the National Audit Office's criticism of fisheries policy and will not create fishing facilities in fishing villages in northern Norway or more activity at sea.
