The Labor Party's national conference voted yes to the general arming of the police tonight. A proposal for arming with a clear framework received a majority. - We have confidence in the police and that the police chiefs are well-suited to assess the situation in their district, the proposal states. - The Labor Party therefore believes that it must also be possible for the police chief to decide that the police occasionally do not carry weapons,…

Labour Party deputy leader Tonje Brenna says that it has been an "extremely nice quality" that the police are not armed. But negative social developments mean that arming may now become necessary.
