Storting sessions (i_stortingssesjoner)

Here we find a translation from each Storting session to the years covered by the session, as well as corresponding variables that belong here. The table builds on its predecessor t_storting_stortingssesjoner, which in turn contains all material from DOK_StortingSesjoner.

Unlike the basic tables, i_stortingssesjoner only deal with proper storting. The extraordinary ones are in a separate table i_overordentlige_storting, which is modeled in a similar way. The National Assembly at Eidsvoll is not considered a Storting and is omitted.

Session (sesjon)

Consecutive numbering, the Storting's own.

Years (årstall)

Character string with the years that the session covers, for example '1859/60' for session 16.

From date (fra_dato)

First day of the session. The exact date is not always easy to determine. Here are the guidelines we have followed:

Session 1-64 (1815-1915) Follows t_storting_stortingssesjoner.
Session 65-103 (1916-1959/60) Appears to follow the first business day after January 10 provision. The date is then usually January 11, but the 12th when the 11th falls on a Sunday.
Session 90 (1945-1950) Began November 25, 1945.
Session 104 to present (from 1959/60) The date appears to be 1 October regardless of the day of the week.

To date (til_dato)

Last day of the session. The exact date is not always easy to determine. Here are the guidelines we have followed:

Session 1-64 (1815-1915) Follows t_storting_stortingssesjoner.
Session 65 to present (fra 1916) Day before fra_dato for next session.
