    Hva viser kartleggingen gjennomført av Riksadvokaten om tilrettelagte avhør, hvordan er denne kartleggingen foreløpig fulgt opp av Politidirektoratet og Kripos, har, eventuelt hvilke, ytterligere tiltak har statsråden iverksatt for å se på utviklingen i antall tilrettelagte avhør, og hva viser rapporteringspunktet om tilrettelagte avhør i de kvartalene denne rapporteringen er gjennomført?

Source: the Storting (data.stortinget.no, NLOD). Not counted in the index: much attention in the Storting is not bad, and little is not good. Questions are linked to the ministry by the minister's title, and to other agencies only when the name is in the title. We do not show who asked or answered.

What we do not measure

We do not assess policy, goal attainment, the quality of services or individual cases. We look only at what can be measured in open data and what the agency itself controls: financial control, audit and procurement. Sick leave per agency is not openly available and is therefore left out.
