If those 600 million had been used, there would have been a risk that we would have gotten the same trend that we had in the 1980s. | BLARK_translated | Um tær 600 milliónirnar høvdu verið brúktar, hevði vandi verið fyri, at vit fingu somu gongd sum vit høvdu í 1980'unum. |
The responsible fiscal policy will not be conducted under the demands of the Danish government. | BLARK_translated | Tann ábyrgdarfulli fíggjarpolitikkurin verður ikki førdur eftir kravi frá donsku stjórnini. |
There is not much to say regarding monetary policy. This is a Danish policy area, and the Faroe Islands have no monetary policy. | BLARK_translated | Viðvíkjandi pengapolitikki er ikki nógv at siga. Hetta er danskt málsøki, og Føroyar hava ongan pengapolitikk. |
The Prime Minister demanded to get clarification on this, and added: (All correspondence is available on the website under "news".) | BLARK_translated | Løgmaður kravdi at fáa greiðu á hesum, og legði afturat: (Alt brævaskiftið liggur á heimasíðuni undir "tíðindi".) |
This was therefore about a confirmation that if the Danish government did not want to make a treaty, it would be a question of “separation” when the Faroe Islands became independent. | BLARK_translated | Hetta var sostatt um eina staðfesting av, at um danska stjórnin ikki vildi gera ein sáttmála, so fór talan at vera um "loysing", tá Føroyar gjørdust sjálvstøðugar. |
The Prime Minister has no plans to carry out a "unilateral secession" without a referendum. | BLARK_translated | Løgmaður hevur ongar ætlanir um at fremja "ensidig løsrivelse" uttan fólkaatkvøðu. |
If the Danes do not want us to leave the union and therefore will do everything within their power to prevent it, isn’t it unreasonable for the government to hand all the cards to the Danes by saying that the Danes should stick to a four-year rotation period so there will be no independence? | BLARK_translated | Um so er at danir ikki ynskja at vit fara úr ríkisfelagsskapinum og tí vilja gera alt, sum stendur í teirra makt fyri at forða hesum, er tað so ikki skilaleyst av landsstýrinum at geva dønum øll kortini í hondina við at siga at halda danir fast við 4 ára skiftistíð so verður onki fullveldi? |
The government says it does not mean there will be no sovereignty if the Danes insist on a four-year rotation period. | BLARK_translated | Landsstýrið sigur ikki at einki fullveldi verður, um danir halda fast við 4 ára skiftistíð. |
There is a clear agreement between the government and the national administration that consultations shall be held about a tax system that "aims at the development of a self-sustaining Faroese economy." | BLARK_translated | Tað er ein greið avtala millum stjórnina og landsstýrið, at samráðingar skulu vera um eina skiftisskipan, sum "tilstræber opbyggelsen af en selvbærende færøsk økonomi". |
So far the government has refused to follow this agreement, and does not want to consult on the matter. | BLARK_translated | Higartil hevur stjórnin noktað at fylgt hesi avtalu, og ikki vilja samráðst um spurningin. |
But the government still hopes that the administration will keep the agreement. | BLARK_translated | Men landsstýrið hevur framvegis vónir um, at stjórnin fer at halda avtaluna. |
Does it say anywhere that "a self-sustaining Faroese economy" must be at a certain level? | BLARK_translated | Stendur tað nakra staðni at "ein sjálvberandi føroyskur búskapur" skal verða á einum ávísum støði? |
Is the agreement of 10 June 1998 not also being fulfilled, even if a self-sustaining Faroese economy is at a lower level than the Faroese economy is today? | BLARK_translated | Er avtalan frá 10. juni 1998 ikki eisini uppfylt, sjálvt um ein sjálvberandi føroyskur búðskapur er á einum lægri støði enn føroyski búðskapurin er í dag? |
If the agreement is fulfilled with a rotation period of 3–4 years, it is of course a question of interpretation. The agreement on this is as follows: | BLARK_translated | Um avtalan er uppfylt við eini skiftistíð uppá 3-4 ár er sjálvsagt ein tulkingarspurningur. Avtalan um hetta er soljóðandi: |
To “strive” means to try as best as possible to ensure that the goal of a self-sustaining Faroese economy is achieved. | BLARK_translated | At "tilstræbe" merkir sum best at royna at tryggja, at endamálið um ein sjálvberandi føroyskan búskap verður rokkið. |
According to the government’s opinion, such a short adjustment period can instead create a risk that our economy will be set back and that borrowing will become necessary. And then it will not be a self-sustaining economy. | BLARK_translated | Eftir landsstýrisins tykki kann ein so stutt tillagingartíð tvørturímóti skapa vanda fyri, at okkara búskapur verður fyri bakkasti, og at neyðugt verður við lántøku. Og tá verður ikki talan um ein sjálvberandi búskap. |
Furthermore it is perfectly clear that the parties must negotiate a system of division – and so far the government has refused to even begin those negotiations. | BLARK_translated | Harafturat stendur púra greitt, at partarnir skulu samráðast um eina skiftisskipan - og higartil hevur stjórnin nokta fyri yvirhøvur at fara undir hesar samráðingar. |
Otherwise it is not the government's public policy to postpone the deadline. The goal is to establish an exchange system which, in accordance with the agreement of 10 June 1998, gives the Faroese economy the opportunity to find its footing. | BLARK_translated | Annars er tað ikki almenna mál landsstýrisins at útseta gildiskomuna. Málið er at fáa eina skiftisskipan sum, í samsvari við avtaluna frá 10. juni 1998, gevur føroyska búskapinum møguleika fyri at fóta sær. |
The Centre Party supports it — although it does not take a principled position on the question of independence or not. | BLARK_translated | Miðflokkurin stuðlar - hóast hann ikki tekur prinsipiella støðu í spurninginum um fullveldi ella ikki. |
The government is still continuing with the independence issue, and the issue still has as much support in the parliament as it did when the preparations began. That is, 19 out of 32 members of parliament. | BLARK_translated | Landsstýrið er framvegis samt í fullveldismálinum, og málið hevur eisini framvegis líka stóran stuðul í løgtinginum, sum tað hevði tá farið varð undir fyrireikingarnar. T.e. 19 av 32 tingmonnum. |
The government has no plans to postpone the referendum for any years. But it has been mentioned as a possibility to postpone the coming into force, if it does not succeed in obtaining a satisfactory agreement on the transition period. Question: | BLARK_translated | Landsstýrið hevur ongar ætlanir um at útseta fólkaatkvøðuna nøkur ár. Men tað hevur verið nevnt sum ein møguleiki, at útseta gildiskomuna, um tað ikki eydnast at fáa eina nøktandi avtalu um skiftistíðina. Spurningur: |
Won’t other items in the budget also increase, for example when we get embassies around the world, when the church, the police and the judiciary are taken over? | BLARK_translated | Koma aðrar greinar á fíggjarlógini ikki at hækkað t.d. tá í vit fáa umboðsstovur runt um í heiminum, yvirtaka kirkjuna, løgregluna og dómsvaldið? |
How do we finance all these takeovers? Do we raise taxes or get new revenues into the budget? And if so, where do they come from? | BLARK_translated | Hvussu fíggjað vit allar hesar yvirtøkur? Hækkað vit skattin ella fáa vit nýggjar inntøkur á fíggjarlógina? Og um so er, hvar koma tær frá? |
Because from the oil we will not get the large revenues until 2020! | BLARK_translated | Tí frá oljuni fáa vit ikki tær stóru inntøkurnar áðrenn ár 2020! |
The course of the national treasury in recent years has been as follows (million DKK) | BLARK_translated | Gongdin hjá landskassanum seinastu árini hevur verið hendan (mió. kr.) |
The total allocation is part of § 20, and in the years 1997–99 it was respectively 886, 908 and 933 million kroner. | BLARK_translated | Heildarveitingin er partur av § 20, og hevur árini 1997-99 verið ávikavist 886, 908 og 933 mió kr. |
In addition to this, it must also be taken into account that the national treasury will incur new expenditures that the Danish state currently pays for. This particularly concerns the running costs of government agencies and student grants (SU). Depending on how the agreement between the Faroe Islands and Denmark turns... | BLARK_translated | Afturat hesum skal eisini roknast við, at landskassin fær nýggjar útreiðslur, sum danski staturin í dag rindar fyri. Her er serliga talan um rakstur av ríkisstovnum og SU. Talan er - alt eftir hvussu avtalan millum Føroyar og Danmark kemur at síggja út - um millum 100-300 mió kr, sum skulu leggjast afturat verðandi útr... |
The trend since 1994 has been that the Faroese economy itself finances a larger and larger share of the national treasury’s expenditures. This is a trend that has continued despite large tax and fee reductions being implemented. In 1994 the Faroese economy financed 64% of the national treasury’s expenditures. In 1997 s... | BLARK_translated | Gongdin síðan 1994 hevur verið, at føroyski búskapurin sjálvur fíggjar størri og størri part av útreiðslum landskassans. Hetta er gongd, sum hevur staðið við, hóast stórar skatta- avgjaldslækkingar eru framdar. Í 1994 fíggjaði føroyski búskapurin 64% av útreiðslum landskassans. Í 1997 var sjálvsfíggingin 75% og í 1999 ... |
When the government says that only 400 million of the block will be used, | BLARK_translated | Tá landsstýrið sigur, at einans 400 milliónir av blokkinum verða brúktar, |
what will then be done with the difference between the block and 400 million? | BLARK_translated | hvat verður so gjørt við munin millum blokkin og 400 milliónir? |
I am a doctor and therefore a member of a Danish trade union. There are only about 15 assistant doctors in the Faroe Islands and we naturally have great advantages in being members of a larger (Danish) union — among other things a large secretariat and access to affiliated legal assistance. My question is whether I and... | BLARK_translated | Eg eri lækni og tí limur í einum donskum fakfelag. Vit eru bara uml. 15 hjálparlæknar í Føroyum og hava sjálvandi stórar fyrimunir í at verða limir í einum størri (donskum) felag - m.a við stórum sekreteriati, tilknýttari sakførara-hjálp. Mín spurningur er um eg og onnur, sum eru limir í einum donskum fakfelag, framveg... |
Faroese independence will in no way affect the possibilities — directly or via local association — of being a member of a foreign trade union. | BLARK_translated | Føroyskt fullveldi verður á ongan hátt at ávirka møguleikarnar fyri - beinleiðis ella umvegis lokalfelag - at vera limur í útlendskum fakfelag. |
Forming trade or other interest associations, and negotiating about wages, are private-law matters that are not affected by public international law or administrative law matters. | BLARK_translated | At skipa seg í verka- ella onnur áhugafeløg, og at samráast um løn, eru privatrættarlig viðurskifti, sum ikki verða ávirkað av fólkarættarligum og stjórnarrættarligum viðurskiftum. |
The government has in principle for many years demanded that Faroese agreements be made with Faroese organizations, but this policy has not been fully implemented. For example, the government's agreement with junior doctors was made with Hjálparlæknaráð Føroya/Foreningen af Yngre Læger. This is a Danish organization. | BLARK_translated | Landsstýrið hevur í prinsippinum í mong ár kravt at gera føroyskar sáttmálar við føroysk feløg, men hesin politikkur er ikki settur fult í verk. T.d. er sáttmálin hjá landsstýrinum við yngri læknar gjørdur við Hjálparlæknaráð Føroya/Foreningen af Yngre Læger. Hetta er danskt felag. |
There is no guarantee that the public sector as an employer will not at some point in the future actually demand to consult only with Faroese companies. But the sovereignty plan will probably not have any influence on this decision. It can just as well be made and not be made under home rule and sovereignty. | BLARK_translated | Tað er eingin trygd fyri, at hitt almenna sum arbeiðsgevari ikki onkuntíð seinni eisini í verki fer at krevja at samráast við føroysk feløg einans. Men fullveldisætlanin fær valla nakra ávirkan á hesa avgerð. Hon kann eins væl verða tikin og ikki verða tikin undir heimastýri og fullveldi. |
This is probably one of those areas where it doesn't make much difference whether the Faroe Islands are a sovereign state or not. | BLARK_translated | Hetta er v.ø.o. eitt av teimum økjum, har tað ikki ger stórvegis mun um Føroyar eru fullveldisríki ella ikki. |
Can Faroese people and Danes with permanent residence in the Faroe Islands continue to choose to be Danish citizens after the Faroe Islands have become a sovereign state? | BLARK_translated | Kunnu føroyingar og danir, við føstum bústaði í Føroyum, velja framhaldandi at vera danskir statsborgarar aftaná at Føroyar eru vorðnar ein suverenur statur. |
No agreement has been made about this yet, but it is likely that people who are currently Danish citizens will be able to apply to remain Danish citizens after the Faroe Islands have obtained full sovereignty — even if they live in the Faroe Islands. Question: | BLARK_translated | Eingin semja er gjørd um hetta enn, men sannlíkt er, at fólk, sum í dag eru danskir ríkisborgarar, fara at kunna søkja um at vera verandi danskir ríkisborgarar eftir at Føroyar hava fingið fullveldi - hóast teir búgva í Føroyum. Spurningur: |
After the meeting between the government and the national council on March 17, Jóannes Eidesgaard asked Mogens Lykketoft some questions about the so-called "ethnic calculations." Can you give me the answers to those questions? | BLARK_translated | Eftir fundin millum stjórnina og landsstýrið tann 17. mars setti Jóannes Eidesgaard Mogens Lykketoft nakrar spurningar um tær sokallaðu "etnisku útrokningarnar". Kunnu tit geva mær svarini uppá teir spurningarnar? |
The question by Jóannes Eidesgaard was put forward on March 21. The question and answer were as follows: | BLARK_translated | Spurningurin hjá Jóannesi Eidesgaard varð settur fram 21. mars. Spurningur og svar vóru soljóðandi: |
But in 1991 a change was made which meant that Faroese expatriates who are studying abroad also gained the right to vote. The condition is that, before they went abroad, they had been registered in the population register in the Faroe Islands for at least 5 years in total. Question: | BLARK_translated | Men 1991 varð ein broyting gjørd, sum hevði við sær, at føroyskir útisetar undir útbúgving eisini fingu valrætt. Treytin er, at teir, áðrenn teir eru farnir uttanlands, hava verið skrásettir í fólkayvirlitinum í Føroyum í í minsta lagi 5 ár tilsamans. Spurningur: |
At the meeting between the government and the national council on March 17 the government presented some calculations that had been made in the Danish Ministry of Finance, which showed how much Faroese people in Denmark cost the Danish state. | BLARK_translated | Á fundinum millum stjórnina og landsstýrið tann 17. mars framlegði stjórnin nakrar útrokningar, sum vóru gjørdar í danska fíggjarmálaráðnum, og sum vístu, hvussu nógv føroyingar í Danmark kosta danska ríkinum. |
How are these calculations made? How does the Danish Ministry of Finance distinguish between Faroese people and other Danish citizens in Denmark? Are Faroese people recorded in a special way in Danish registers? | BLARK_translated | Hvussu eru hesar útrokningar gjørdar? Hvussu sær danska fíggjarmálaráðið mun á føroyingum og øðrum donskum ríkisborgarum í Danmark? Verða føroyingar skrásettir á serligan hátt í donskum yvirlitum? |
Isn't there a law called the "register law"? What does it say about this? | BLARK_translated | Er ikki ein lóg sum eitur "registerloven"? Hvat sigur hon um hetta? |
The only thing that the Danish Ministry of Finance has disclosed about these calculations is this: | BLARK_translated | Tað einasta, sum danska fíggjarmálaráðið hevur upplýst um hesar útrokningar, er hetta: |
The Danish Ministry of Finance has not answered questions from journalists who have asked for more details about this. | BLARK_translated | Danska fíggjarmálaráðið hevur ikki svarað spurningum frá tíðindafólki, sum hava spurt nærri um hetta. |
In a broadcast on P1 on Danmarks Radio both the Danish civil registry (folkeregisteret) and the CPR registration (the personal identification registration) were asked whether there is any special registration of Danish citizens who come from the Faroe Islands. The answer was no in both cases. Question: | BLARK_translated | Í eini sending á P1 í Danmarks Radio vórðu bæði danska fólkaeftirlitið (folkeregisteret) og CPR-skrásetingin (persóntals-skrásetingin) spurd, um tað finst nøkur serlig skráseting av donskum ríkisborgarum, sum koma úr Føroyum. Svarið var nei í báðum førum. Spurningur: |
If it happens that the Faroe Islands become independent, and we still have a Danish king or queen; what power would these royals possibly have over the Faroese? | BLARK_translated | Um so er, at Føroyar gerast sjálstøðugar, og vit framvegis fara at hava ein danskan kong ella drottning; hvat vald fara hesi kongaligu møguliga at hava á Føroyingum? |
Just as the Danish queen has no real power over Danish citizens today, she will have no real power over Faroese citizens if the Faroe Islands become a sovereign state. The king/queen is primarily a figurehead. | BLARK_translated | Eins og danska drotningin einki veruligt vald á donskum ríkisborgarum í dag, so fer hon einki veruligt vald at hava á føroyskum ríkisborgarum, um Føroyar gerast fullveldisríki. Kongurin/drotningin er fyrst og fremst ein ímynd. |
But why must the decision about Faroese independence be rushed through right now? After all, we have survived as a people without independence for 1,000 years. Have the Faroese suddenly produced some convincing product that naturally means we must have independence immediately? | BLARK_translated | Men hví skal avgerðin um føroyskt fullveldið skundast so nógv ígjøgnum beint nú? Vit hava hóast alt yvirliva sum fólk uttan fullveldi í eini 1000 ár. Hava føroyingar nú knappliga gjørt nakran sannførandi vørr, sum natúrliga hevur við sær, at vit skulu hava fullveldið alt fyri eitt? |
The government believes that there is a close connection between political and economic self-sufficiency, and that political responsibility and economic responsibility go hand in hand. | BLARK_translated | Landsstýrið heldur, at neyvt samband er millum politiskt og búskaparligt sjálvbjargni, og at politisk ábyrgd og búskaparlig ábyrgd hanga saman. |
Why should we have a new constitution? After all, we already have one that has worked well for many years. | BLARK_translated | Hví skulu vit hava eina nýggja grundlóg? Vit hava jú eina sum hevur virkað væl í mong ár. |
The government holds that all political power in the Faroe Islands should emanate from the people of the Faroe Islands. Therefore the constitution should be adopted and put into effect by the people. | BLARK_translated | Tað er landsstýrisins hugsan, at alt politiskt vald í Føroyum eigur at ganga út frá Føroya fólki. Grundlógin eigur tí at verða viðtikin og sett í gildi av fólkinum. |
The Danish state has unilaterally imposed its constitution on the Faroe Islands, and it has never been formally adopted or approved by the Faroese people. Question: | BLARK_translated | Danska ríkið hevur einvíst sett sína grundlóg í gildi fyri Føroyar, og hon er ongantíð formliga viðtikin ella góðkend av Føroya fólki. Spurningur: |
In my opinion, we cannot call ourselves an independent country if our foremost identity comes from another country. | BLARK_translated | Eftir míni meining kunnu vit ikki nevna okkum eitt sjálvstøðugt land, um okkara fremsta ímynd úr einum øðrum landi. |
There is, however, no secret that there is not complete agreement about this among the coalition parties, and some of them have already announced that they, when the sovereignty plan has been brought to completion, will work for the Faroe Islands to become a republic with their own president. Question: | BLARK_translated | Tað er kortini eingin loyna, at tað ikki er full semja um hetta millum samgonguflokkarnar, og onkur teirra hevur longu boðað frá, at hann, tá fullveldisætlanin er førd á mál, fer at virka fyri, at Føroyar gerast lýðveldi við egnum forseta. Spurningur: |
Is it the government’s plan that there should only be a referendum when the new agreement with Denmark is to be implemented? Shouldn’t there be a referendum if the agreement is to be terminated? | BLARK_translated | Er ætlan landsstýrisins, at tað bert skal verða fólkaatvøða tá tann nýggi sáttmálin við Danmark skal setast í gildi? Skal fólkaatkvøða ikki vera, um sáttmálin skal uppsigast? |
The agreement must include provisions on how it can be terminated, and there is little doubt that it will be stipulated as a requirement that a referendum be held. | BLARK_translated | Sáttmálin skal hava ásetingar um, hvussu hann kann uppsigast, og tað er lítil ivi um, at tað fer at verða sett sum eitt krav, at fólkaatkvøða verður hildin. |
In Iceland there was a referendum both when the agreement was put into effect in 1918 and when it was terminated in 1944. | BLARK_translated | Í Íslandi var fólkaatkvøða bæði tá sáttmálin varð settur í gildi í 1918, og tá hann var uppsagdur í 1944. |
A Faroese person is someone who has Faroese citizenship, just as a Dane is someone who has Danish citizenship and an Icelander is someone who has Icelandic citizenship. | BLARK_translated | Ein føroyingur verður ein, sum hevur føroyskan ríkisborgararætt, eins og ein dani er ein, ið hevur danskan ríkisborgararætt og ein íslendingur er ein, ið hevur íslendskan ríkisborgararætt. |
It is said that the Danish block grant shames (or degrades) the Faroese economy (semi-illness etc.), but at the same time it is said that if the Danes are not willing to give us the highest political power immediately, then they should at least pay us the current amount into the coffers! How do these two arguments fit ... | BLARK_translated | Tað verður sagt, at danski blokkstuðulin avskeplar føroyska búðskapin (hálendska sjúka osfr.), men samstundis verður sagt, at um danir ikki vilja geva okkum evsta politiska vald beinanvegin, ja so skulu teir versgóð gjalda okkum í minsta lagi núverandi upphædd við kassa eitt! Hvussu hanga hesi bæði argumentini saman? |
But all investigations indicate that it is the benefits from Denmark that make Faroese people accept that the Danish state has sovereign authority over the Faroe Islands. | BLARK_translated | Men allar kanningar benda á, at tað eru veitingarnar úr Danmark sum gera, at føroyingar góðtaka, at danska ríkið hevur yvirvaldsrættin yvir Føroyum. |
It seems that Faroese people are not inclined to accept a system where we pay for everything ourselves, but the Danes are in power. | BLARK_translated | Føroyingar tykjast ikki vera sinnaðir at góðtaka eina skipan, har vit rinda alt sjálvir, men danir hava valdið. |
Therefore there is little doubt that if the Danish realm is to retain sovereign authority over the Faroe Islands, the grants must continue. | BLARK_translated | Tí er lítil ivi um, at skal danska rikið varðveita yvirvaldsrættin yvir Føroyum, mugu veitingarnar halda fram. |
Some questions are so similar to other questions that have already been answered that they will not be answered again. | BLARK_translated | Summir spurningar líkjast kortini so nógv øðrum spurningum sum longu eru svaraðir, at teir verða ikki svaraðir umaftur. |
How will it be with consulates - embassies - around the world if the Faroe Islands become a sovereign state? | BLARK_translated | Hvussu verður vid umboðsstovum - ambassadum - kring allan heim um Føroyar gerast fullveldisríki? |
In this question the government is prepared to follow the recommendations given in the White Paper. The White Paper says the following about this: | BLARK_translated | Í hesum spurningi er landsstýrið sinnað at fylgja teimum tilmælum, sum givin verða í Hvítubók. Hvítabók sigur soleiðis um hetta: |
When small countries gain independence, it is common for them to establish representative offices in the former central power, the regional great power, neighboring countries, the major markets, and where the large international organizations have their headquarters. This can also be recommended if the goal is to obtai... | BLARK_translated | Tá ið smá lond taka fullveldi, er vanligt, at tey seta á stovn umboðsstovur í fyrrverandi miðveldinum, stórveldinum í økinum, grannalondunum, teimum stóru marknaðunum, og har teir stóru, altjóða felagsskapirnir hava miðstøð. Hesum kann eisini stílast ímóti, um málið er at fáa sjálvstøðuga føroyska tænastu. Talan verður... |
What does the Government base its statements on that the Faroese economy is becoming more and more dependent on Danish state grants, when the white paper states that "although state expenditures have grown since 1962, they have become an increasingly smaller part of the total public expenditures in the Faroe Islands. T... | BLARK_translated | Hvat byggir Landstýrið utsagnir um, at Føroyski búskapurin bara gerst meira og meira heftur av donskum ríkisveitingum, tá tað í hvítubók stendur at "hóast ríkisútreiðslurnar eru vaksnar síðan 1962, eru tær vorðnar ein støðugt minni partur av samanløgdu almennu útreiðslunum í Føroyum. Hetta kemst av, at føroyska eginfíg... |
The expenditures of the state and municipalities today are about DKK 4 billion in total. The block grant is DKK 950 million, but the surplus is so large that only between DKK 300 and 400 million of this support will be used. | BLARK_translated | Útreiðslurnar hjá landi og kommunum eru í dag umleið 4 mia. kr. tilsamans. Blokkstuðulin er 950 mió. kr., men yvirskotið er so stórt, at bert millum 300 og 400 mió. kr. av hesum studningi verður brúktur. |
If the questions are political in nature, they will be answered by ministers. If they are technical/professional, they will be answered by civil servants. In any case, all the answers are the government’s responsibility. | BLARK_translated | Um spurningarnir eru av politiskum slag, verða teir svaraðir av landsstýrismonnum. Eru teir fakligir, verða teir svaraðir av embætisfólki. Øll svarini eru kortini landsstýrisins ábyrgd. |
Why should an independent Faroese country have a Danish king/queen? | BLARK_translated | Hví skal eitt sjálvstøðugt føroyskt land hava danskan kong/drotning? |
The royal house has no real political power today. It is primarily an image. And the intention for the Faroe Islands and Denmark to have a joint royal house is precisely that this should symbolize the community that the plan is to create, just like the historical ties that bind Denmark and the Faroe Islands together. | BLARK_translated | Kongshúsið hevur einki veruligt politiskt vald í dag. Tað er fyrst og fremst ein ímynd. Og ætlanin við at Føroyar og Danmark skulu hava felags kongshús er júst at hetta skal ímynda tann felagsskap, sum ætlanin er at gera, eins og tey søguligu bond, sum knýta Danmark og Føroyar saman. |
Why doesn’t the government strive for us to become financially self-sufficient before we become politically self-governing? Shouldn’t we, first and foremost, demonstrate in practice that we can manage without Danish support? | BLARK_translated | Hví strembar landsstýrið ikki eftir at vit gerast fíggjarliga sjálvbjargin áðrenn vit gerast politiskt sjálvbjargin? Eiga vit ikki fyrst og fremst at vísa í verki at vit klára okkum uttan danskan stuðul? |
The government holds the view that political responsibility and economic responsibility go together. That we take economic responsibility is a consequence of our taking political responsibility — and vice versa. | BLARK_translated | Landsstýrið hevur ta fatan, at politisk ábyrgd og búskaparlig hoyra saman. At vit taka búskaparliga ábyrgd er ein fylgja av, at vit taka politiska ábyrgd - og øvugt. |
The government does not consider it right that the Faroese take financial responsibility for the Faroe Islands while leaving political responsibility and political power to remain in Denmark. | BLARK_translated | Landsstýrið heldur tað ikki vera rætt, at føroyingar taka fíggjarligu ábyrgdina av Føroyum, men lata ta politisku ábyrgdina og tað politiska valdið verða verandi í Danmark. |
Is there any legal precedent that an ordinary Act of the Danish Parliament (Folketing) has “prevailed” over an ordinary Act of the Faroese Parliament (Løgting)? | BLARK_translated | Finst nakað rættarligt fordømi um, at ein vanlig fólkatingslóg hevur "vunnið" á eini vanligari løgtingslóg? |
Before a bill of the Faroese Parliament is submitted to the Parliament, it is always checked whether it is in accordance with the applicable Danish legislation. Several bills are never submitted to the Parliament because the parliamentary office announces that they are not in accordance with any Danish Folketing law. | BLARK_translated | Áðrenn eitt løgtingslógaruppskot verður lagt fyri tingið, verður altíð kannað, um tað er í samsvari við galdandi donsku lóggávu. Fleiri løgtingslógaruppskot verða aldrin løgd fyri tingið, tí løgtingsskrivstovan boðar frá, at tey ikki eru í samsvari við onkra fólkatingslóg. |
If this becomes the solution, it will be necessary to make agreements with the court administration so that the judges who have insight into Faroese matters, and who currently judge in the Faroese Court, the Eastern High Court and the Supreme Court in Faroese cases, will continue to judge after the judicial system has ... | BLARK_translated | Verður hetta loysnin verður neyðugt at gera semjur við dómstólsstýrið um, at teir dómarar, ið hava innlit í føroysk viðurskifti, og sum í dag døma í Føroya Rætti, Eystara Landsrætti og Hægstarætti í føroyskum málum, halda fram at døma eftir at rættarskipanin er komin undir føroyskt fyrisitingar- og lóggávuvald. |
Such a solution should also be implemented for the Faroese prosecution system. | BLARK_translated | Ein tílík loysn eigur eisini at gerast fyri føroysku ákæruvaldsskipanina." |

Why is a Faroese constitution so decisive in relation to the plan for full independence? As far as I know, a constitution is not a prerequisite for establishing an independent state. For example, Britain has no constitution. | BLARK_translated | Hví er ein føroysk grundlóg so avgerðandi í sambandi við fullveldisætlanina. Mær vitandi er ein grundlóg eingin fortreyt fyri at skipa eitt sjálvstøðugt ríki. T.d. hevur Bretland onga grundlóg. |
The British tradition is several hundred years old, and is therefore regarded as being a sufficiently secure foundation to stand on. In the Faroe Islands we do not have such a strong tradition that it is considered able to serve as the foundation for the legal system in a Faroese sovereign state. | BLARK_translated | Bretska siðvenjan er fleiri 100 ár, og verður tí hildin at vera eitt nóg trygt grundarlag at standa á. Í Føroyum hava vit ikki so sterka siðvenju, at hon verður hildin at kunna verða grundarlag undir rættarskipanini í einum føroyskum fullveldisríki. |
I have not been resident in the Faroe Islands for 2 years. Was I allowed to vote? | BLARK_translated | Eg havi havið ikki verið búsettur í Føroyum í 2 ár. Fáði eg loyvi at stemma? |
When it is said that parliamentary acts of the Danish Folketing "override" laws of the Faroese Løgting, can the Faroese government then point to any legal precedent that supports this statement? | BLARK_translated | Tá sagt verður at fólkatingslógir "vinna" á løgtingslógum, kann landsstýrið so vísa á nakað rættarligt fordømi, sum stuðlar hesum úttalilsi? |
A law passed by the Faroese parliament is a lower legal source than a law passed by the Danish parliament, because a Faroese parliament law is based on the Home Rule Act — and the Home Rule Act is a Danish parliamentary law. | BLARK_translated | Ein løgtingslóg er ein lægri rættarkelda enn ein fólkatingslóg, tí ein løgtingslóg hevur støði í heimastýrislógini - og heimastýrislógin er ein fólkatingslóg. |
A landmark ruling on this was handed down in the Eastern High Court in 1983. There the High Court said that handling a specific tax matter concerning a Danish doctor in the Faroe Islands, which was based on a Faroese parliamentary law, was a violation of § 10 of the Home Rule Act. That section states that Faroese legis... | BLARK_translated | Ein prinsipiellur dómur um hetta varð feldur í eystara landsrætti í 1983. Tá segði landsrætturin, at viðgerð av einum ávisum skattamáli viðvíkjandi einum donskum lækna í Føroyum, sum var grundað á løgtingslóg, var brot á § 10 í heimastýrislógini. Har stendur, at tað ikki í føroyskari lóggávu kann verða gjørdur munur á ... |
Are there any international rules that apply to referendums when countries have to decide their future? | BLARK_translated | Eru nakrar altjóða reglur galdandi fyri fólkaatkvøður, tá lond skulu avgera sína framtíð? |
A majority in a referendum is a majority of those who vote. In Iceland in 1918, for example, it was only 39.9% of those who had the right to vote who voted for the treaty with Denmark. | BLARK_translated | Ein meiriluti á eini fólkaatkvøðu er ein meiriluti av teimum, sum atkvøða. Í Íslandi í 1918 vóru tað t.d. bert 39,9 % av teimum, í høvdu atkvøðurætt, ið atkvøddu fyri sáttmálanum við Danmark. |
The ST places no conditions regarding a referendum when a country assumes full sovereignty. Otherwise, Chapter 6 of the White Paper explains the international law rules that are relevant in this connection. Question: | BLARK_translated | ST setur ongar treytir um fólkaatkvøðu, tá eitt land tekur fullveldi. Annars verður í 6. kapitli í Hvítubók greitt frá teimum altjóðarættarligu reglum, sum eru viðkomandi í hesum sambandi. Spurningur: |
The Danish spouse can live in the Faroe Islands and have the same rights as a Faroese person without changing citizenship. When it comes to the children, the specific circumstances determine matters, but in most cases they will be able to choose between Danish and Faroese citizenship. | BLARK_translated | Tann danski hjúnarfelagin kann búgva í Føroyum og hava somu rættindi sum ein føroyingur uttan at skifta ríkisborgaraskap. Hvussu verður við børnunum veldst um tey ítøkiligu viðurskiftini, men í flestu førum fara tey at kunna velja millum danskan og føroyskan ríkisborgaraskap. |
In the sovereignty debate the term “all-national constitution” is often used. What is an “all-national constitution”? | BLARK_translated | Í fullveldiskjakinum verður hugtakið "altjóðagerð" tíðum nýtt. Hvat er "altjóðagerð"? |
Internationalization is the same as "globalization." It means that communication and trade between countries become easier, and that national borders lose significance. Question: | BLARK_translated | Altjóðagerð er tað sama sum "globalisering". Tað merkir, at samskifti og samhandil millum lond gerst lættari, og at ríkismørk missa týdning. Spurningur: |
The laws in the Faroe Islands are based on the Constitution and the Home Rule Act, and if the Faroe Islands become fully sovereign these laws will no longer apply here. Does that mean that all other laws will also cease to be valid, and that they must be re-promulgated? | BLARK_translated | Lógirnar í Føroyum hava støði í grundlógini og heimastýrislógini, og um Føroyar taka fullveldi verða hesar lógir ikki galdandi her longur. Merkir tað, at allar aðrar lógir eisini fara úr gildi, og at tær mugu lýsast av nýggjum? |
Does the Danish state have an obligation to follow the result of a referendum in the Faroe Islands and grant the Faroese nation full sovereignty if a majority desires it? | BLARK_translated | Hevur danska ríkisvaldið skyldu at fylgja úrslitinum av eini fólkaatkvøðu í Føroyum og geva føroysku tjóðini fullveldi, um ein meiriluti ynskir tað? |
Referendums in the Danish realm are, in principle, only advisory. Therefore the state does not have a legal obligation to follow a majority in the Faroe Islands. When the referendum in 1946 was annulled, that was not a breach of constitutional law either. | BLARK_translated | Fólkaatkvøður í danska ríkinum eru í grundregluni bert vegleiðandi. Tí hevur ríkisvaldið ikki løgfrøðiliga skyldu at eftirlíka einum meiriluta í Føroyum. Tá fólkaatkvøðan í 1946 varð ógyldað, var tað heldur ikki brot á statsrættin. |
Why can't a Faroese personal identification number be used in Denmark, when Faroese people are "Danes who belong at home in the Faroe Islands"? | BLARK_translated | Hví kann eitt føroyskt p-tal ikki brúkast í Danmark, tá føroyingar eru "danir, ið hoyra heima í Føroyum"? |
Personal data are used to make communication between citizens and authorities easier. For example, when you need to pay tax or receive support of any kind from Danish authorities, you must use their personal identification number system, while in the Faroe Islands you must use the personal identification number system ... | BLARK_translated | Persónstøl verða brúkt fyri at gera samskiftið millum borgarar og myndugleikar lættari. Tá tú t.d. skalt rinda skatt ella hava studning av einumhvørjum slag frá donskum myndugleikum, mást tú nýta p-talsskipanina hjá teimum, meðan tú í Føroyum mást nýta p-talsskipanina hjá føroyskum myndugleikum. |
The Faroese have their own calling code, because the Faroese home rule has its own systems in several areas. | BLARK_translated | Føroyingar hava egið p-tal, tí føroyska heimastýrið hevur sínar egnu skipanir á fleiri økjum. |
But many Faroese people have two CPR numbers. They use the Faroese one when they communicate with authorities in the Faroe Islands, and the Danish one when they communicate with authorities in Denmark. | BLARK_translated | Men nógvir føroyingar hava tvey p-tøl. Teir brúka so tað føroyska tá teir samskifta við myndugleikar í Føroyum, og tað danska tá teir samsifta við myndugleikar í Danmark. |
