a Norwegian citizen. This declaration has full effect for ten years,

foreigners by the laws on recruiting, is continued even after they

or his delegate, the minister of the interior — be legally acquired
by others than Norwegian or Swedish citizens, or companies having
the seat of their administration in Norway or in Sweden and

same with all rights for using the soil. Dispensations can be
granted by the king as far as leaseholds and similar rights are
concerned, which may be granted for ten years at most by the
minister of the interior.

According to the act of April 21st, 1888, the right of working

authorisation can be given to foreigners.
