The board should address the recurring debate and the plans concerning the Parliament’s ombudsman. Provisions for such an institution can be placed in the constitution as support for democracy. The aim is to constitutionalize an independent institution that will, among other things, work for citizens’ legal protection ... | BLARK_translated | Nevndin eigur at viðgera afturvendandi orðaskiftið og ætlanirnar um løgtingsins umboðsmann. Ásetingar um ein slíkan stovn, kunnu setast í grundlógina, sum ein styrki undir fólkaræðinum. Endamálið er at grundlógarfesta ein óheftan stovn, sum burturav skal virka fyri rættartrygd borgaranna mótvegis fyrisitingini (útinnan... |
Provisions that the ombudsman may not leave office until a new one is elected, how a new one shall be elected if the ombudsman resigns or dies. | BLARK_translated | Ásetingar um, at umboðsmaðurin ikki kann fara frá, fyrr enn ein nýggjur er valdur, hvussu nýggjur skal veljast, um umboðsmaður fer frá ella doyr. |
For the national audit office the approach can be the same as for the ombudsman — i.e., that the independence and powers of the national audit office are guaranteed in the constitution. | BLARK_translated | Fyri landsgrannskoðanina kann leisturin vera tann sami sum fyri fólksins umboðsmann - t.e. at integriteturin og heimildirnar hjá landsgrannskoðanini verða tryggjað í grundlógini: |
The Constitution Committee must decide how the powers and responsibilities of municipalities (or similar local, more democratic administrations) can be enshrined in the constitution. | BLARK_translated | Grundlógarnevndin eigur at gera av, hvussu heimildir og ábyrgd hjá kommunum (ella líknandi lokalari, fólkaræðisligari umsiting) kunnu grundlógarfestast. |
In the constitutional law the municipalities are briefly mentioned in § 56, and under that the municipalities’ debt commitments. The committee should decide whether, among other things, these matters should be specified in the constitution: | BLARK_translated | Í stýrisskipanarlógini eru kommunurnar stutt nevndar í § 56 og harundir skuldarbinding kommunanna. Nevndin eigur at gera av, um m.a. hesi viðurskifti skulu ásetast í grundlógini: |
Democratic basic principles for municipal activities - including oversight, public access, and public town and village council meetings | BLARK_translated | Fólkaræðisligar grundreglur fyri virksemi kommununnar - herundir eftirlit, alment innlit og almennir bý- og bygdaráðsfundir |
The committee must make provisions that set the procedure for constitutional amendments and the effective date for this first constitution. | BLARK_translated | Nevndin má gera ásetingar, sum leggja fast mannagongdina fyri grundlógarbroytingum og gildiskomuna fyri hesa fyrstu grundlógina. |
The committee also deals with practical questions here, because it is conceivable that some parts of the constitution will come into force in stages in connection with the negotiations and agreements with Denmark on the constitutional status (for example, it is conceivable that provisions on the judiciary will come int... | BLARK_translated | Her renir nevndin seg eisini í praktiskar spurningar, tí hugsandi er, at summir partar av grundlógini koma í gildi í stigum í sambandi við samráðingarnar og avtalurnar við Danmark um ríkisrættarligu støðuna (t.d. er hugsandi at ásetingar um dómsvaldið, skulu koma í gildi nakað seinni enn hinir partarnir í grundlógini).... |
On 11 February 1999 the Faroese Parliament approved this law, which requires the government to appoint a committee to prepare a Faroese constitution. | BLARK_translated | Tann 11. februar 1999 samtykti løgtingið hesa lógina, sum áleggur landsstýrinum at seta nevnd at gera føroyska grundlóg |
2. In the Constitutional Committee there sit two representatives for each party in the parliament that has four MPs or more, one representative for each party in the parliament that has three MPs or fewer, one government minister and five persons with higher social science education. | BLARK_translated | 2. Í grundlógarnevndini sita tvey umboð fyri hvønn flokk á tingi, sum hevur fýra tingmenn ella fleiri, eitt umboð fyri hvønn flokk á tingi, sum hevur tríggjar tingmenn ella færri, ein landsstýrismaður og fimm persónar við hægri samfelagsvísindaligum útbúgvingum. |
Paragraph 2. The Prime Minister appoints the government’s representatives to the committee. The members representing the parties in the parliament must be Members of Parliament and are to be elected by the parliamentary parties. The Minister selects the five representatives with higher social-science education, and amo... | BLARK_translated | Stk. 2. Løgmaður velur umboð landsstýrisins í nevndina. Limirnir umboðandi flokkarnar á løgtingi skulu vera løgtingsmenn og verða valdir av flokkunum á løgtingi. Landstýrismaðurin velur tey fimm umboðini við hægri samfelagsvísindaligum útbúgvingum, og teirra millum formannin í nevndini. Fyri hvønn nevndarlim verður val... |
Paragraph 3. The minister may appoint a secretary to the board, who must have higher education in social sciences. | BLARK_translated | Stk. 3. Landsstýrismaðurin kann seta skrivara í nevndina, sum skal hava hægri samfelagsvísindaliga útbúgving. |
3. While the committee is working, it arranges regular public hearings on the constitutional work. | BLARK_translated | 3. Meðan nevndin arbeiðir skipar hon fyri regluligum almennum hoyringum um grundlógararbeiðið. |
5. This law shall enter into force on the day after it is promulgated. | BLARK_translated | 5. Hendan lóg kemur í gildi dagin eftir at hon er kunngjørd. |
The Constitutional Committee has set up 18 working groups. Each group has five permanent members, both social scientists and politicians. The working groups prepare drafts and ready the consideration of individual topics. The working groups are organized around four main themes: | BLARK_translated | Grundlógarnevndin hevur sett 18 arbeiðsbólkar. Í hvørjum bólki eru fimm fastar limir, bæði samfelagsfrøðingar og politikarar. Arbeiðsbólkarnir gera upprit og fyrireika viðgerðina av einstøkum evnum. Arbeiðbólkarnir eru skipaðir kring fýra høvuðsevni: |
All groups have a presentation at the constitutional meeting, where there will be a discussion. A summary of the presentation and the discussion will be available on the website. | BLARK_translated | Allir bólkarnir hava framløgu á grundlógarfundi, har orðaskifti verður. Ein samandráttur av framløguni og orðaskiftinum verður at síggja á heimasíðuni. |
The group shall consider how the forthcoming agreement with Denmark should be incorporated into a Faroese constitutional framework. | BLARK_translated | Bólkurin skal viðgera, hvussu komandi sáttmáli við Danmark skal setast inn í eitt føroyskt grundlógarhøpi. |
Should something be included in the constitution about the free association, the royal association, or other social institutions such as the Supreme Court? | BLARK_translated | Skal nakað standa í grundlógini um frælsan felagsskap, kongsfelagsskap ella aðrar felags stovnar sum hægstarætt. |
Another question is the rights of the individual under the new circumstances. At present, Faroese are Danish citizens; what about this in the future? | BLARK_translated | Ein annar spurningur er rættur einstaklingssins undir teimum nýggjum viðurskiftum. Sum er, eru føroyngar danskir statsborgarar, hvussu við hesum í framtíðini. |
The question of Faroe Islands' membership in international organizations must also be addressed. | BLARK_translated | Eisini skal spurningurin um limaskap hjá Føroyum í altjóða felagsskapum viðgerast. |
A decisive question, when it comes to constitution-making, is the question of the constitution’s effectiveness or functionality. | BLARK_translated | Ein avgerandi spurningur, tá talan er um grundlógarsmíð, er spurningurin um effektivitetin ella virkni hjá grundlógini. |
Should the constitution have direct effect for the citizen, or should it rather serve as guidance for the legislature? Should courts and the ombudsman and other institutions have the authority to defend the constitution, or should the democratically elected parliament itself decide how the constitution is to be interpr... | BLARK_translated | Skal grundlógin hava beinleiðis týdning fyri borgaran, ella skal hon heldur vera leiðbeinandi fyri lóggevara. Skulu dómstólar og umboðsmaður og aðrir stovnar hava mynduleika at verja grundlógina, ella skal tað fólkavalda tingið sjálvt gera av, hvussu grundlógin skal tulkast. |
The committee will review Parliament’s oversight of the government and the administration. | BLARK_translated | Bólkurin fer at viðgera eftirlitið hjá løgtinginum við landsstýrinum og fyrisitingini. |
The group also looks at other oversight such as the national audit office, the ombudsman and the importance of public transparency. | BLARK_translated | Eisini hyggur bólkurin at øðrum eftirliti sum landsgrannskoðara, umboðsmanni og týdninginum av almennum innliti. |
The Løgting (parliament) can question government ministers and examine the activities of the administration. | BLARK_translated | Løgtingið kann seta landsstýrismonnum spurningar og kanna virksemið hjá fyrisitingini. |
If the parliament is dissatisfied, it can lead to political or legal responsibility. The political responsibility is if the parliament approves a vote of no confidence. The legal responsibility is if charges are brought under the law on the responsibility of government ministers. | BLARK_translated | Er tingið ónøgt, kann tað føra við sær politiska ella rættarliga ábyrgdan. Tann politiska er, um løgtingið samtykkir eina misálitisváttan. Tann rættarliga er, um reist verður ákæra eftir lóg um ábyrgd landsstýrismanna. |
Consideration is being given to whether the supervisory provisions should be strengthened and changed, and how they should be organised in the constitution. | BLARK_translated | Hugt verður at, um eftirlitisamboðini skulu styrkjast og broytast, og hvussu tey skulu skipast í grundlógini. |
1. Which administrative and procedural provisions are currently in force in the Constitution, in derivative laws/regulations, or as unwritten administrative law/custom? | BLARK_translated | 1. Hvørjar fyrisitingar- og procesásetingar eru í dag galdandi í Grundlógini, avleiddum lógum / reglum ella sum óskrivaður fyrisitingarrættur / siðvenja? |
2. What is stipulated about administrative and procedural rights in international treaties to which we are parties and in other relevant constitutions? | BLARK_translated | 2. Hvat er ásett um fyrisitingar- og procesrættindi í altjóða sáttmálum, sum vit eru partar av og í øðrum viðkomandi grundlógum.? |
The group shall consider what should be stated in the constitution about how the country is organized into municipalities. | BLARK_translated | Bólkurin skal viðgera, hvat skal standa í grundlógini um, hvussu landið skipast í kommunur. |
The group must also consider the significance of border-number settlements and the counties in a constitutional context. | BLARK_translated | Bólkurin skal eisini viðgera týdningin av markatalsbygdunum og sýslunum í einum grundlógarhøpi. |
56. The municipalities’ right to place their own affairs under the supervision of the government will be determined by parliamentary law, including the extent to which municipalities and inter-municipal associations may be bound by loans, guarantees, etc. | BLARK_translated | 56. Rættur kommunanna at skipa egin viðurskifti undir eftirliti landsstýrisins verður ásettur í løgtingslóg, m.a. í hvønn mun kommunur og millumkommunufelagsskapir kunnu skuldbindast við láni, borgan o.ø.m." |
The group must consider who is formally the highest representative of the Faroe Islands and holds the highest rank. | BLARK_translated | Bólkurin skal viðgera, hvør formliga er hægsta umboð Føroya og hevur hægstu tign. |
Should this be a king, or the Danish queen, or should we perhaps have a president or let the speaker hold the highest rank in the country. | BLARK_translated | Skal hetta vera ein kongur, ella danska drotningin, ella skulu vit kanska hava forseta ella lata tingformannin hava hægstu tign í landinum. |
The question is therefore also what role this head of state should have in relation to the promulgation of laws, the granting of pardons for crimes, and in connection with the organization of government. | BLARK_translated | Spurningurin er so eisini, hvønn leiklut hesin landshøvdingi skal hava í samband við staðfesting av lógum, náðan av brotsverkum og í sambandi við skipan av stjórn. |
How should such international treaties be managed politically and administratively, and how should the government and the parliament cooperate regarding the authority to negotiate and ratification? | BLARK_translated | Hvussu skulu slík millumtjóða mál umsitast politiskt og fyrisitingarliga, og hvussu skulu landsstýrið og løgtingið samstarva kring samráðingarheimild og góðkenning. |
52. The Government has the right of negotiation in matters which the Home Rule Government is authorized to negotiate and to make agreements with other countries. | BLARK_translated | 52. Landsstýrið hevur málsræði í førum, sum heimastýrinum er heimilað at tingast við og gera avtalur við onnur lond. |
Paragraph 2. Without the consent of the Løgting, however, the government may not conclude agreements that require the participation of the Løgting in order to be carried out, or that are otherwise significant. | BLARK_translated | Stk. 2. Uttan samtykki løgtingsins kann landsstýrið tó ikki gera avtalur, sum krevja luttøku løgtingsins fyri at verða útintar, ella sum annars eru týdningarmiklar. |
Paragraph 2. Section 52, subsections 2 and 3, apply in the same way in these cases. | BLARK_translated | Stk. 2. § 52, stk. 2 og 3, galda á sama hátt í hesum førum. |
54. The Løgting shall elect from among its members a foreign affairs committee of seven members, with which the government shall consult before decisions are made that have major foreign-policy significance. | BLARK_translated | 54. Løgtingið velur millum løgtingsmenn eina uttanlandsnevnd við sjey limum, sum landsstýrið ráðførir seg við, áðrenn avgerðir verða tiknar, ið hava stóran uttanlandspolitiskan týdning. |
Paragraph 2. Likewise, the government shall consult with this committee in connection with negotiations with the state authorities that are of great importance for the relations between the Faroe Islands and Denmark. | BLARK_translated | Stk. 2. Somuleiðis skal landsstýrið ráðføra seg við hesa nevnd í sambandi við samráðingar við ríkismyndugleikarnar av stórum týdningi fyri viðurskiftini Føroya og Danmarkar millum. |
a) it contravenes international agreements the home rule has made with other countries, | BLARK_translated | a) hon gongur ímóti millumtjóðasáttmála, heimastýrið hevur gjørt við onnur lond, |
b) it conflicts with the international treaties that Denmark has made with other countries, which also cover the Faroe Islands. | BLARK_translated | b) hon gongur ímóti millumtjóðasáttmála, Danmørk hevur gjørt við onnur lond, og sum eisini fevnir um Føroyar. |
The personal rights of the individual are such that they either cannot be restricted or can only be restricted in a specific way. | BLARK_translated | Tey persónligu rættindini hjá einstaklinginum eru slík, sum annaðhvørt ikki kunnu avmarkast ella bert kunnu avmarkast á serligan hátt. |
Political civil rights are the rights that relate to political behavior in a broad sense, not just party politics. | BLARK_translated | Politisk mannarættindi eru tey rættindini, sum knýta seg at politiskum atburði í breiðari merking, ikki bert flokspolitikki. |
Among the political human rights are freedom of expression/speech, freedom of the press, freedom of assembly, freedom of association, and the right to vote. | BLARK_translated | Millum tey politisku mannarættindini eru framsóknarfrælsi/framsøgufrælsi (ytringsfrihed), pressufrælsi, savningarfrælsi, felagsfrælsi og valrættur. |
These are questions that the voter decides. Everyone has the right to vote in the Faroe Islands when they are 18 years old, are domiciled in the Faroe Islands, and are citizens of the Danish realm. Some are allowed to vote even if they are abroad. This can be because they are studying or traveling in another country. | BLARK_translated | Hetta eru spurningar, sum veljarin avger. Øll hava valrætt í Føroyum, tá tey eru 18 ár og eru heimahoyrandi í Føroyum og eru borgarar í danska ríkinum. Summi sleppa á val, sjálvt um tey eru uttanlands. Hetta kann vera, tí tey lesa ella ferðast í einum øðrum landi. |
The voter in the Faroe Islands gets to choose their representatives in several different bodies: the Parliament of Denmark (Folketing), the Faroese Parliament (Løgting), and municipal councils. If a referendum is held on an issue, it is again the voter who decides. | BLARK_translated | Veljarin í Føroyum sleppur at velja síni umboð í fleiri ymsar stovnar: fólkating, løgting og kommunustýri. Verður fólkaatkvøða um eitt mál, er tað aftur veljarin, ið ger av. |
When we go to vote, we put a cross by the party and the candidate we choose. | BLARK_translated | Tá vit fara á val, seta vit ein kross við tann flokk og tað valevnið, vit velja. |
In the Faroe Islands people get to vote on average about once a year. The term of office for municipal councils is always four years, while the Løgting and the Faroese seats in the Danish Parliament can be elected more frequently if snap elections are called. | BLARK_translated | Í Føroyum sleppa fólk á val í meðal umleið eina ferð um árið. Valskeiðið hjá kommunustýrunum er altíð fýra ár, meðan løgtingið og fólkatingið kunnu veljast títtari, um val verður í ótíð. |
Once the voter has marked their ballot, all the votes are counted. Then the seats in parliament are distributed among the constituencies and the parties. There are seven constituencies, and in the last election six parties were represented in parliament. In total there are 32 members of parliament. | BLARK_translated | Tá veljarin hevur sett krossin hjá sær, verða allar atkvøðurnar taldar. So verða tingsessirnir býttir millum valdømini og flokkarnar. Valdømini eru sjey í tali, og á valinum seinast fingu seks flokkar umboðan á tingi. Tilsamans eru 32 tingmenn. |
The Løgting makes laws. All members of the parliament and government ministers can submit proposals to the parliament. Proposals must receive three readings in order to be finally adopted. After the first reading, proposals usually go to a committee of the Løgting. | BLARK_translated | Løgtingið smíðar lógir. Allir tingmenn og landsstýrismenn kunnu leggja uppskot fyri tingið. Uppskotini mugu fáa trýggjar viðgerðir, skulu tey vera endaliga samtykt. Eftir fyrstu viðgerð fara uppskotini vanliga í eina nevnd hjá løgtinginum. |
When bills are before the parliament, or when the assembly must decide some other matter, the members of parliament vote yes or no — or abstain. If there are more yes-votes than no-votes, the proposal is adopted. Usually the MPs stick together, not only within parties but also in the coalition. Those who are in the coa... | BLARK_translated | Tá lógaruppskotini eru fyri, ella tá tingið skal samtykkja okkurt annað mál, atkvøða tingmenn ja ella nei - ella hvørki. Eru tað fleiri ja-atkvøður enn nei-atkvøður, so er uppskotið samtykt. Vanliga halda tingmenn saman, ikki bert í flokkum, men eisini í samgongu. Teir, sum eru í samgongu, hava avtalað at atkvøða fyri ... |
In earlier times the Løgting met only on Ólavsøka. The Løgting mainly dealt with cases that had been before the spring assemblies in the six counties. These were criminal cases, and the Løgting then decided who should be punished for offenses. | BLARK_translated | Fyrr í tíðini var løgtingið bert saman á ólavsøku. Løgtingið viðgjørdi fyri tað mesta mál, sum høvdu verið fyri á vártingunum í teimum seks sýslunum. Hetta vóru dómsmál, og løgtingið tók tá avgerð, hvør skuldi revsast fyri brotsverk. |
Nowadays the Løgting does not judge. The Løgting approves laws, international treaties and elects people to various positions, but does not adjudicate. The courts do that. But the Løgting still holds a session on Ólavsøka, and then the parliament, the government and officials all process to the cathedral before the ope... | BLARK_translated | Nú á døgum dømir løgtingið ikki. Løgtingið samtykkir lógir, millumlanda sáttmálar og velur fólk í ymisk størv, men dømir ikki. Tað gera dómstólarnir. Men løgtingið hevur framvegis fund á ólavssøku, og tá ganga bæði tingið, landsstýrið og embætisfólk skrúðgongu í dómkirkjuna, áðrenn tingsetan byrjar ólavssøkudag. |
If the constitutional committee drafts a constitution, should it be our supreme law? | BLARK_translated | Grundlógarnevndin smíðar eina grundlóg, skal hon vera evsta lóg okkara? |
When public institutions make decisions or tell people what they must do, this must be done in accordance with applicable law. The laws are adopted by the Faroese Parliament (the Løgting), but the Parliament’s laws must be in accordance with the Constitution (the system of government law). | BLARK_translated | Tá almennir stovnar taka avgerðir ella siga fólki, hvat tey skulu gera, má hetta gerast í samsvar við galdandi lóg. Lógirnar samtykkir løgtingið, men lógirnar hjá tinginum mugu vera í samsvar við stýrisskipanarlógina. |
The Faroese voter must soon decide whether the Faroe Islands should be fully sovereign, free and independent from Denmark, or continue within the realm/union. | BLARK_translated | Føroyski veljarin skal skjótt avgerða, um Føroyar skulu vera fullveldi, frælst og óheft av Danmark, ella halda fram innan ríkisfelagsskapin. |
The Faroese people elect members to both the Folketing and the Løgting. The Folketing is the parliament of the Danish state, while the Løgting is the parliament of the country of the Faroe Islands. | BLARK_translated | Føroyingar velja bæði limir á fólkating og løgting. Fólkatingið er tingið hjá danska ríkinum, meðan løgtingið er tingið hjá landinum Føroyum. |
Some believe that this is a special arrangement, both being part of the Danish realm and having control over some matters themselves. They believe that the Faroe Islands are in an association together with Denmark and Greenland, which gives us security and opportunities. | BLARK_translated | Summi halda, at hetta er ein ófør skipan, bæði at vera partur av danska ríkinum og at hava ræði á nøkrum málum sjálvi. Tey halda, at Føroyar eru í einum felagsskapi saman við Danmark og Grønlandi, ið gevur okkum trygd og møguleikar |

Cooperation will be agreed with the relevant authorities in Denmark and other countries on education, research, health matters, financial matters, policing, judicial matters and foreign affairs. | BLARK_translated | At samstarv verður avtalað við viðkomandi myndugleikar í Danmark og øðrum londum um útbúgving, gransking, heilsumál, fíggjarmál, løgreglumál, rættarmál og uttanríkismál. |
Based on the coalition agreement of 9 May 1998, the government’s plan for increased self-government is in four stages: | BLARK_translated | Við støði í samgonguskjalinum frá 9. mai 1998 er sjálvstýrisverkætlan landsstýrisins í fýra stigum: |
The parliamentary resolution to establish Faroese sovereignty as law, which was adopted in the parliament on October 2, 1998 with the votes of the coalition parties and the Centre Party. | BLARK_translated | Løgtingssamtyktin um at seta føroyskt fullveldi sum mál, ið varð samtykt á løgtingi 2. oktober 1998 við atkvøðunum hjá samgonguflokkunum og Miðflokkinum. |
To give the people of the Faroe Islands, the Løgting (parliament) and the government a reliable foundation to stand on when demands and opportunities related to the independence plan are to be addressed. | BLARK_translated | At geva Føroya fólki, løgtingi og landsstýri eitt álítandi grundarlag at standa á, tá ið krøv og møguleikar í sambandi við fullveldisætlanina skulu viðgerast. |
To describe possibilities for and examples of arrangements that grant increased autonomy, while Faroese people do not have supreme authority in the Faroe Islands. | BLARK_translated | At lýsa møguleikar fyri og dømi um skipanir, sum geva økt sjálvstýri, tó uttan at føroyingar hava evsta vald í Føroyum. |
To obtain a reliable basis for the work of preparing a draft agreement to present to the Danish government. | BLARK_translated | At fáa eitt álítandi støði undir arbeiðinum at gera sáttmálauppskot at leggja fyri donsku stjórnina. |
To provide a reliable foundation for the continued work of reaching political agreements on long-term policy and long-term priorities in a self-sufficient Faroe Islands. | BLARK_translated | At fáa eitt álítandi grundarlag undir framhaldandi arbeiðinum at gera politiskar semjur um langtíðarpolitikk og langtíðarraðfestingar í einum sjálvbjargnum Føroyum. |
The Government hopes that all parties, under the main heading and based on the White Paper, will examine concrete possibilities, challenges and requirements in the autonomy process with the aim of clarifying disagreements and aiming for agreements. | BLARK_translated | Landsstýrið vónar, at allir flokkar undir aðalorðaskiftinum við støði í Hvítubók vilja viðgera ítøkiligar møguleikar, avbjóðingar og krøv í sjálvstýristilgongdini við tí endamáli at greina ósemjur og miða eftir semjum. |
The government has internally reviewed the White Paper and agrees that the analyses confirm there are no direct obstacles to the plan to organize the Faroe Islands as a sovereign state in a treaty with Denmark, as the Faroese parliament approved on 2 October 1998. | BLARK_translated | Landsstýrið hevur innanhýsis viðgjørt Hvítubók, og er samt um, at útgreiningarnar staðfesta, at ongar beinleiðis forðingar eru fyri ætlanini um at skipa Føroyar sum fullveldisríki í sáttmála við Danmark, sum løgtingið samtykti tann 2. oktober 1998. |
There has been much debate about the constitutional position of the Faroe Islands and the possibilities for changing the legal status. The Treaty Committee has reached these conclusions in the White Paper: | BLARK_translated | Nógv orðaskifti hevur verið um stjórnarrættarligu støðu Føroya og møguleikarnar fyri at broyta rættarstøðuna. Sáttmálanevndin hevur í Hvítubók, gjørt hesar niðurstøður: |
The Faroe Islands have always been a special/different territory, and have never been a fully integrated part of any other territory. | BLARK_translated | Føroyar hava altíð verið serstakt løgdømi, og ongantíð verið fult samrunnin partur av nøkrum øðrum løgdømi. |
According to international law, the Faroese meet all the conditions to be an independent nation. There is nothing in international law that prevents the Faroe Islands from being organized as a sovereign state. | BLARK_translated | Sambært altjóðarætti lúka føroyingar allar treytir fyri at vera sjálvstøðug tjóð. Tað er einki í altjóðarætti sum forðar fyri, at Føroyar kunnu skipast sum fullveldisríki. |
Other arrangements exist that would give Faroese people greater autonomy than the current home rule act, but without the Faroese having supreme authority. The most extensive is a system in which the Faroe Islands would leave the Danish kingdom and, by an international treaty, be constituted in a so‑called free associat... | BLARK_translated | Aðrar skipanir finnast, ið geva føroyingum størri sjálvstýri enn núverandi heimastýrislóg, men uttan at føroyingar hava evsta valdið. Tann mest víðfevnda, er ein skipan, har Føroyar fara úr dansks ríkinum og í einum altjóðarættarligum sáttmála skipa í einum sonevndum frælsum felagsskapi við Danmark |
The main problems in the current system of home rule, which is based on authorization from the Danish state authorities, can hardly be resolved within the present Danish constitution. | BLARK_translated | Høvuðstrupulleikarnir í verandi heimastýrisskipan, ið er grundað á heimildarveiting frá danska ríkisvaldinum, kunnu neyvan loysast innan núverandi donsku grundlógina. |
Changes to the Danish constitution are very difficult to make. This is for the Danish state authorities and the Danish people to decide, and therefore cannot be done from the Faroe Islands. | BLARK_translated | Broytingar í donsku grundlógini eru sera truplar at fremja. Hetta liggur hjá donsku ríksimyndugleikunum og danska fólkinum at gera av, og kann sostatt ikki gerast av í Føroyum. |
If a new constitutional position for the Faroe Islands is agreed within the Danish realm, there is a risk that the Faroese right to self-determination will be lost. According to international law, the right to self-determination can be lost if a new arrangement within the Danish realm is carried out in a democratic man... | BLARK_translated | Um ein nýggj stjórnarrættarlig støða fyri Føroyar verður avtalað innanfyri danska ríkið, er vandi fyri, at sjálvsavgerðarrættur føroyinga ferst. Sjálvsavgerðarrætturin kann sambært altjóðarætti farast, um nýggj skipan, ið liggur innanfyri danska ríkið, verður framd á fólkaræðisligan hátt. |
That the Faroe Islands become a sovereign state in a commonwealth agreement with Denmark does not require changes to the Danish constitution. | BLARK_translated | At Føroyar gerast fullveldisríki í einum samveldissáttmála við Danmark krevur ikki, at broytingar verða gjørdar í donsku grundlógini. |
The procedures to be followed when a union treaty is made with Denmark are clear according to the Faroese constitutional order and according to the Danish constitution. | BLARK_translated | Mannagongdirnar sum skulu fylgjast, tá ið samveldissáttmáli verður gjørdur við Danmark, eru greiðar sambært stýrisskipan Føroya og sambært donsku grundlógini. |
Laws that are in force in the Faroe Islands today will remain in force if a treaty of association is ratified. However, provisions that are incompatible with the new constitutional status of the Faroe Islands will become inoperative. | BLARK_translated | Lógir, sum eru í gildi í Føroyum í dag, verða verandi í gildi, um ein samveldisáttmáli verður staðfestur. Tó gerast ásetingar óvirknar, ið eru ósambærligar við nýggju stjórnarrættarligu støðu Føroya. |
That the Faroe Islands are moving toward full sovereignty is not unique to small nations. The trend in the world, especially after the Second World War, has been that more and more small nations take on the highest authority in their own country. This is usually done by agreement and in good cooperation with the former... | BLARK_translated | At Føroyar stevna móti fullveldi er ikki eindømi fyri smáar tjóðir. Gongdin í heiminum, serliga eftir seinna heimsbardaga, hevur verið, at alt fleiri smátjóðir átaka sær evsta valdið í egnum landi. Hetta verður vanliga gjørt í sátt og semju og góðum samstarvi við fyrrverandi ríkismyndugleikarnar. Í høvuðsheitum eru roy... |
The analyses by the economic committee in the White Paper shed light, among other things, on the following matters: | BLARK_translated | Útgreiningarnar hjá búskaparnevndini í Hvítubók kasta millum annað ljós á hesi viðurskifti: |
The Finance Committee points out that the total grant is an income over which we do not ourselves have control of the course, and that the government and parliament cannot guarantee this appropriation in the future. For example, if there is a surplus in the public coffers in the Faroe Islands for several years, it can ... | BLARK_translated | Búskaparnevndin vísir á, at heildarveitingin er ein inntøka, har vit ikki sjálvi hava ræðið á gongdini, og at landsstýri og løgting kunnu ikki tryggja hesa játtan framyvir. Er t.d. yvirskot í teimum almennu kassunum í Føroyum í fleiri ár, kann tað gerast politiskt trupult at grundgeva fyri veitingini. |
Therefore we must expect a different kind of growth for a while in the near future. When assessing economic growth going forward, it is therefore necessary to look at averages for the economic development over several years, as the economic committee has done in its report. | BLARK_translated | Her eiga vit tískil at rokna við einum øðrvísi vøkstri eina tíð í næstu framtíð. Tá ið metast skal um búskaparvøksturin frameftir er tískil neyðugt at líta at meðaltølum fyri búskaparligu gongdina yvir fleiri ár, eins og búskaparnevndin hevur gjørt í síni frágreiðing. |
The Economic Committee points out in its report four main ways to reduce the state subsidy away: | BLARK_translated | Búskaparnevndin vísir í síni frágreiðing á fýra høvuðsleiðir at minka ríkisstuðulin burtur: |
Reduction over the fixed budget year, where economic growth is used to finance a reduction in government grants. | BLARK_translated | Minking yvir fast áramál, har búskaparvøksturin verður nýttur at fíggja minking í ríkisveitingum. |
Reduction without a fixed schedule, where economic growth is used to finance reductions in government grants, so that the government grants only decrease when positive growth has been confirmed. | BLARK_translated | Minking uttan fast áramál, har búskaparvøksturin verður nýttur at fíggja minking í ríkisveitingum, so at ríkisveitingarnar bert minka, tá ið positivir vøkstur er staðfestur. |
At the same time, the government emphasizes that a cautious economic policy adjustment, as set out in the coalition agreement, is necessary. In the agreement with the Danish government of 10 June 1998, article 9 states: | BLARK_translated | Samstundis leggur landsstýrið dent á, at neyðugt er við eini varligari búskaparpolitiskari tillaging, sum ásett er í samgonguskjalinum. Í avtaluni við donsku stjórnina frá 10. juni 1998 er í grein 9 ásett: |
The Danish Government has taken note that the Faroese Government in its coalition agreement has the objective of establishing the Faroe Islands as a sovereign state. The Government is prepared, on this basis and at the Faroese Government’s request, to initiate negotiations regarding the Faroese Government’s wishes for ... | BLARK_translated | Den Danske Regering har noteret sig, at Færøernes Landsstyre i sin koalitionsaftale har som målsætning at oprette Færøerne som suveræn stat. Regeringen er indstillet på, at der på denne baggrund og på landsstyrets foranledning, indledes forhandlinger om landsstyrets ønsker om et nyt grundlag for de fremtidige bilateral... |
The government emphasizes the conclusion of the Economic Committee that fiscal governance measures are the most important for a self-sufficient Faroese economy. | BLARK_translated | Landsstýrið leggur dent á niðurstøðuna hjá Búskaparnevndini um, at fíggjarpolitisku stýringsamboðini eru tey týdningarmestu fyri ein sjálvbjargnan føroyskan búskap. |
A fiscal policy framework will be established for all activities of the state and municipalities. | BLARK_translated | Ein fíggjarpolitiskur karmur verður settur fyri alt virksemið hjá landi og kommunum. |
