Norway – Ministry of Foreign Affairs

Poor

ATI_Donor Graph-31

OVERVIEW

The Index takes into account information published by the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) and Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation (Norad). The majority of Norwegian development assistance is administered by the MFA but most activity-level information is found on the Norad website.

Norway is an original signatory to IATI but is yet to start publishing information to the IATI standard. It has published a moderately ambitious implementation schedule, setting a target of end of 2013 for beginning publication to IATI. It currently plans to publish to 68% of IATI fields by 2015. However, the schedule excludes many of the added-value fields, such as activity documents and performance data. Norway’s open data portal, data.norge.no, is a government-wide portal and includes information on Norad’s aid activities. However, the new MFA grants portal, which contains project information for 2013 onwards (updated every month), does not allow free bulk export of the data. Norway is a founder member of OGP and published a National Action Plan in 2011, but it does not include any commitments specific to aid transparency.

ANALYSIS

Norway ranks 16th out of 49 bilateral agencies. It is weak on organisation financial data, activity classifications, performance data and project documents. Norway’s poor performance can be explained in part by the format in which it publishes information. Although it has a project database with information on aid activities downloadable in Excel, fewer than a third of the indicators that take format into account are published in machine-readable formats.

RECOMMENDATIONS

  • Norway should begin publishing its aid data to the IATI standard in 2013 as planned, so it can comply with the standard by the end of 2015. It should also update its implementation schedule by early 2014 so it is more ambitious, including more fields and specifying the licence under which data will be published.
  • It should start publishing activity performance data, project documents and forward-looking recipient country budgets.
  • Norway should update its OGP National Action Plan to include commitments on implementing IATI.
