Foreword by the President
Dear Council Meeting of ELSA Norway,
Welcome to ELSA Norway’s National Council Meeting in the beautiful city of
Oslo! It seems like it was just yesterday we were elected at the NCM in Tromsø,
but as you read this we have been in term for almost two months. The national
board and I are very excited to meet you and hope this weekend will be
unforgettable, and that you will be inspired and motivated to continue your
outstanding work for ELSA.
Actually, ELSA is the only law student’s organization in Norway with a national
platform of cooperation. This means that our NCMs is a fantastic opportunity to
organize our work, share experiences and ideas, and together achieve excellent
quality in the activities hosted by both the local groups and the national board of
ELSA Norway. I advise you all to use the opportunities that the NCMs gives us to
ask questions and share ideas with each other.
Two years ago I attended my first NCM in Tromsø as a newbie in the organization.
I still remember that I was so surprised by the high level of professionalism in
ELSA, which I until that time had thought to be just a basic student organization.
In just a weekend I did not only get to learn a lot about ELSA, but I also made new
friends and became a part of the community ELSA really is. That was the moment
I decided I wanted to be a part of this great organization, and work hard to
maintain the high level of professionalism.
On that note I hope that the days in Oslo will be just as inspiring and beneficial for
you as it was for me. The national board and I sure will do our best to make sure of
that. You will learn, teach, inspire and motivate, and of course you will have a lot of
fun!
Best regards,
Ane Fossli
President
ELSA Norway 2017/2018
2Activity reports
President
Dear Council,
The board of ELSA Norway was elected at the National Council Meeting in
Tromsø in February and when the NCM is held we’ve been in our positions for
almost two months. As of now I can already see our board forming and I have
great faith for my board this year.
The first activity of the board of ELSA Norway 17/18 was the transition weekend
together with the previous board, in Oslo the 23th of June to the 25th of June. The
previous board gave us an introduction to the work of the national board, which
was a good way to start the term. It was also an opportunity for the new board to
get to know each other better and to start to build a foundation for our work for
the term.
We arranged the traditional planning weekend in the middle of August at Kaja’s
cabin located in Ål. We planned strategies for the different activities we are hosting
during this term, deciding and establishing routines for our work and we founded
an understanding for what each of us has to do throughout the term. We also got
to know each better, and I believe we will work well together during the term.
A few days after our planning weekend I travelled to Zagreb where I attended the
International Presidents Meeting from the 23th to the 27th of August. At the
meeting I got to know the presidents of many other national and local boards. We
had workshops and exchanged ideas and practices from our own countries. This is
also where the idea for the proposal of the change to the statutes origins from.
If you have any questions about my work or future plans, feel free to contact me. I
am looking forward to meeting you all and having a great NCM!

3Secretary General
Dear Council,
In June I attended the transition weekend in Oslo together with my board and the
previous board, where I received a thorough transition with Benedicte.
During the summer vacation I started creating a communication platform with the
local SecGens on Facebook and mail. In early August I updated the Norwegian
Association Registry "Brønnøysundregisteret".
I also started planning the autumn NCM in Oslo together with the Secretary
General of ELSA Oslo. ELSA Norway sat the dates in late June, so that ELSA
Oslo could start their work early. In early August we opened the call for ELSA
Norway, and a separate call for international guests.
August 18-20 I attended the ELSA Norway planning weekend in Ål, where major
parts of ELSA Norway's work for the term was decided upon, including the vast
majority of the contents and time schedule of the NCM Oslo.
August 30 through September 3 I attended SAM Novi Sad, together with a total of
6 participants from ELSA Norway, whereof 1 in the IM workshop, which I
chaired. This year's SAM was a great experience which really kicked off this year's
term in ELSA Norway, and which enabled me to initiate cooperation with, and
establish a wider network of ELSA colleagues all over Europe.
The latter part of the autumn turn will be mainly about the NCM in Oslo, ICM in
Sarajevo, and NOM in Helsinki, all of which I will attend.
I am really looking forward to seeing you all at the Council Meeting in Oslo!

4Vice President for Marketing
Dear Council,
This term started of with a great transition in Oslo in June, where I received both
the general transition together with the rest of the board, and the specific transition
with my predecessor.
In August I attended the planning weekend in Ål. Here we went though routines
and plans for the upcoming year, and I got a lot of motivation to work om
promoting ELSA to an even bigger audience.
The Supporting Area Meeting was held in Novi Sad in Serbia this year, and I was
lucky enough to have two local officers with me in the Marketing Workshop.
During the week we discussed a lot of important topics, shared experiences and
made a strategy on how to promote ELSA in the best possible way.
I’ve also spent a lot of time planning the Marketing Workshops for this NCM, and
I hope that the program will be rewarding and interesting for everyone who attends
the workshops.
In addition to this I have also modified the templates for the marketing materials
for this STEP cycle. I have made a few drafts for the promotion of our project
“Go International” which I look forward to share with the Marketing Workshop
during this NCM.
I’m also very exited to start the work on this year’s IFP Week, as I am going to be
IFP Coordinator 2017/2018. I hope to have some interesting discussions on what
we can do this year.
Best regards,
Marie Bakken
Vice President for Marketing
ELSA Norway 2017/2018
5Vice President for Academic Activities
Dear Council,
The term as VP AA begun this summer, when I met the rest of my board for a
transition weekend in Oslo. This was productive and inspiring, and I got a lot of
ideas for the upcoming semester. Later in August we met in Ål to plan the semester
and this National Council Meeting.
With regards to the national negotiation competition, I have had a meeting with
our main sponsor and the President of ELSA Norway. The date is set, and I am
excited to start planning the competition with the Director for the competition.
The national moot court competition is currently under revision, and I have had
several meetings with my Director and the President. We are planning on
implementing some innovative alterations to the concept, and the process has so
far been very exciting.
Moreover, I am participating in the ongoing legal research group on migration law.
I organised a meeting with the group last week, and I have gained valuable
knowledge as a researcher and national coordinator. This will be useful to increase
interest in the project next semester.
I have also had regular skype meetings with the local officers, and we have shared
ideas and experiences about the competitions. We have settled on the dates for the
upcoming events, and I am looking forward to working with them throughout the
year.
Next week is the Key Area Meeting in Bratislava, where I will get to know with AA
officers from all over Europe. This will be an exciting week, which hopefully will
leave me more motivated and inspired.
I am looking forward to this National Council Meeting – see you soon!
Sincerely,
Jonas Koch Fredriksen
Vice President for Academic Activities
ELSA Norway 2017/2018
6Vice President for Seminars & Conferences
Dear Council,
I started my term as VP S&C of ELSA Norway by attending the general and
specific transition in Oslo. The old board passed on their experiences, knowledge
and ELSA spirit to the new board, and it was a nice start for us. In the middle of
August, our board gathered for a planning weekend in Ål. This was a very valuable
experience for us as we got to distribute tasks among us and plan our work for the
upcoming semester – this NCM in particular. But most importantly, we had a great
weekend where we strengthened our bond as a board and as friends.
My focus so far has been to get in touch with and start planning the term with the
local VP S&Cs. We have communicated on Facebook and Skype, and I am lucky to
have a motivated group of S&Cers that I look forward to working with. I have also
started planning ELSA Norway’s annual Institutional Visit to Brussels and
Luxembourg, which will take place in the beginning of 2018. I am currently in the
process of recruiting the team that will help me plan the trip.
Furthermore, I have taken upon the responsibility of administering ELSA
Norway’s website. I have updated all the outdated information and started the
process of adding updated content to make the website more attractive and useful.
I have also strived to be an active member of the international ELSA network. At
the time of writing, I am counting down the days until the Key Area Meeting in
Bratislava. As head of the Norwegian delegation, I’m excited to travel with a group
of motivated officers to get to know the new international network. I’m looking
forward to fruitful discussions and knowledge sharing in the S&C workshop, which
I will be chairing.
Lastly, I’ve been preparing the S&C workshops for this NCM, which I hope will be
beneficial and fun for both new and old officers. I hope we will leave each other
with the inspiration, knowledge and energy(?) we need for the rest of our term.
Let’s get started!
Best regards,
Kaja Bakkevig Piene
Vice President for Seminars & Conferences

7Vice President for Student Trainee Exchange Programme
Dear Council,
Before my term began I attended both the general and the specific transition in
Oslo. The previous national board gave us an introduction to our new offices, and
passed on their experiences and knowledge.
Prior to August 1st, I created a Facebook group with the local STEP officers from
ELSA Bergen, ELSA Oslo and ELSA Tromsø. The Facebook group has already
turned out to be a great platform for communication. I also had a skype meeting
with the local officers in the beginning of August, where we talked about our
expectations for the upcoming term, transitions and challenges regarding the
reception. In the middle of August our national board met for a planning weekend
in Ål. Our main focus for this weekend was to coordinate the plans for the rest of
the semester, with a special focus on the upcoming National Council Meeting.
So far I have spent most of my time planning the Workshops for this National
Council Meeting, and preparing for the Key Area Meeting in Bratislava mid
September. But I have also helped the local officers with challenges regarding the
reception, and tried to stay up to date on ELSAs international network.
Right now we are in the Job Hunting process, where the local officers are recruiting
active members for their STEP teams. Throughout the Job Hunting cycle I want to
provide my local officers with the necessary support and knowledge. We also have
one more trainee coming to Norway in November, so the local officer and her
team is working on finding him a place to stay. I want to support her throughout
the reception period and be available if any challenges occur.
I am very much looking forward to seeing all of you, and working with you
throughout this semester!
Best regards,
Marie Stenhammer Berntzen

All participants at Norway’s National Council Meeting represent their delegation.
Therefore, we expect that all participants, also those who are not board members,
participate in the workshops. Those who do not attend the workshop risk not
getting to attend the banquet.
Remember when in workshop
- Be honest and open
- Every opinion is right

12
Finger rules for Workshops
The “finger rules” are intended to make the job of the Chair easier and to ensure
that the discussions are as effective and smooth as possible.
The theory behind the finger rules is simple, you indicate what you want to state by
using one of the following gestures:
One finger: New idea/topic
Two fingers: Reply/Comment
Three fingers: End the discussion – it’s not useful
Pinky: Technical remark (e.g. “the text is too small”)
Finger with scissor: Remove/ cut from speakers list
Thumbs up/down: Show immediate feedback to a statement, instead of
asking for the word to only say “I like xxx idea” or “I
don’t like xxx idea”

Proposals
Proposals regarding the Statutes
Endringsforslag Vedtektenes § 21 Landsstyremøter
Innkallelse til landsstyremøtet skal skje minimum tre dager i forveien. Dagsordenen
bør foreligge et døgn i forveien.
Det kan bare fattes vedtak i saker som står på dagsorden.
Landsstyret fatte vedtak med simpelt flertall. Ved stemmelikhet avgjør President sin
stemme utfallet. For at styret skal være beslutningsdyktig, må mer enn halve styret
være tilstede, likevel minst fire personer. Kun de som deltar på møtet kan avgi
stemme.
Medlemmer av Landsstyret kan overdra sin stemmerett skriftlig til et annet medlem
av Landsstyret. Stemmeretten skal være underlagt instruks.
Et styremedlem kan ikke inneha mer enn to stemmer, inkludert sin egen. Ingen kan
selv, ved fullmektig eller som fullmektig, delta i en avstemning rettet mot seg selv.
Lederne i ELSAs lokalgruppe har møte- og talerett på Landsstyres møter.
Lokallederne skal motta dagsorden samtidig som de ordinære styremedlemmene i
Landsstyret. Lokallederne kan når det er nødvendig sende stedfortreder.
Stedfortreder har samme rettigheter som lokallederen.
Landsstyret kan i ekstraordinære tilfeller beslutte lukket møte.
Begrunnelse:
Lokallederne har allerede en vedtektsbestemt møte- og talerett på Landsstyremøter.
Problemet er at de ofte ikke er klar over denne retten eller når møtene er. I
realiteten blir dette en illusorisk rettighet.
Landsstyret håper å oppnå transparens og bedre kommunikasjon mellom
Landsstyret og lokalgruppene gjennom endringen. Lokalgruppene får en reell
mulighet til å benytte seg av møte- og taleretten, oversikt over agendaen til
Landsstyret og oppfordring til å stille spørsmål ved Landsstyrets pågående arbeid.
39
Proposals regarding the “Arbeidsregler”
Endringsforslag Arbeidsreglenes § 8-1 Medlemsavgift
Lokalgruppene skal årlig betale medlemsavgift til ELSA Norge. Medlemsavgiften er
fastsatt til kroner 45 000,- 40 000,- som skal fordeles med 1/3 pr. lokalgruppe.
Begrunnelse:
Medlemsavgiften har stått stille de siste årene og ut fra Landsstyrets behov og den
økonomiske situasjonen i lokalgruppene er det et passende tidspunkt å sette den
opp. Dette har vi sett at har blitt gjort tidligere, i 2013 var medlemsavgiften på 50
000 kr f. Eks. Med tanke på KPI-indeksen og at medlemsavgiften har stått stille har
det i realiteten vært en nedgang i de siste årene. Dette er noe som selvfølgelig må
vurderes å settes ned dersom den økonomiske situasjonen endrer seg.

Annex II – Minutes from the National Council Meeting in Tromsø
Spring 2017
Please read the draft workshop and Plenary minutes from the National Council
Meeting in Tromsø Spring 2017.
Every Delegation has the possibility to suggest changes to these draft minutes.
Download them and read carefully through them, focusing on your own
comments, and make your changes using the track changes function in Word. If
you don’t have track changes, then please highlight everything you want to
add/change in green and everything that you want to remove in red.
The deadline for sending in your corrections is set on Thursday, September 14th,
2017 at 23:59 CET. We would like to remind you that the final approval of the
minutes will take place during the Opening Plenary of the NCM, where final
corrections can be made before the Council approves them.
If you make changes on the minutes, please forward them to the Secretary General
of ELSA Norway on secgen@elsa.no. We will accept one file per Local Group.
This means that we ask from the Local Boards to collect the inputs from your
NCM Delegates in one file.
Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the Secretary
General of ELSA Norway on secgen@elsa.no.
