The population of Norway increased by 17,100 persons in the third quarter and has now reached 4,843,000. A little more than 60 per cent of the increase is due to immigration.
The rest is due to new births. The number of newborn is today at the highest level since the middle of the 1970s, according to fresh figures from Statistics Norway. (NRK) Rolleiv Solholm |
