– Per Sandberg deserves praise for having taken the initiative of FRP might change their opinion in this area, says Støre.
– Fee pressure should be down
Sandberg responds by giving promise to the country’s car owners:
– Although we adopt parts of the policy, this change does not mean that it will go out of motorists: the total tax pressure on car going down, says Sandberg VG Friday afternoon.
– Minister follows otherwise not; we have programs secured the polluter should pay, says Sandberg.

– Exciting
VG wrote on August 25 that it may be likely that the road tax for vehicles removed in exchange for higher taxes on petrol and diesel.
– I think it’s exciting and promising that FRP and the Liberals are talking about finding together to bring about a green tax shift. We will meet this with an open mind. That FRP opens to increase fees to let the polluters pay, will be an important political course change, says Minister:
– If it is not solved; what will you offer Left?
– Left has chosen to seek solutions with FRP. So we’ll see what comes out of it. Labor has always been assumed that the polluter should pay, so we are clear, says Støre.
– But it is important to know that you actually have a policy in this field who can be more exciting to consider for the Liberals?
– in our budget this year, we added an a much more aggressive policy to achieve low emissions society, which collectively accounted for around three billion more than the government. We’re going to be ambitious also in next year’s budget, said Minister.
– Promising
Former Progress Party leader Carl I. Hagen has warned strongly against enter into any compromise with Left increasing gasoline taxes.
– you imply that you are pleased that there seems to be Sandberg and not the garden which sets out guidelines for the future?
– Sandberg is in this case is an interesting development in Norwegian politics. Increased fees for the use of polluting fuels have not been FRP line until now. On the contrary: the electric charge of Norwegian hydropower have become more expensive, while petrol and diesel has become cheaper. About FRP now shifting course it is promising for climate policy.

FRP has an important meeting on the topic when the party leadership meets representatives of the party’s regional organization in time 1600 Friday.
