Left-wing grouping in Norway
(N.Z.P A.-Reuter—Copyright) OSLO, April 22.
Norway’s four Leftwing parties are to dissolve themselves and form a new radical party which will challenge the ruling Social Democratic Party at the next General Elections.
Among the four is the Norwegian Communist Party. It is believed to be the first case of a West European Communist party opting to discontinue its activities and join other groupings on the Left. A resolution, unanimously adopted by delegates from the Communist Party, the Socialist People’s Party, Independent Labour and the Independent Socialists, said yesterday that a “Unity congress” would be held by March 15 next year. All parties would be dis-1 solved after the municipal [ elections of 1975, the dissolution to be completed during the course of 1976. The four parties co-oper-ated in the General Elections of 1973 and gained 12 seats from the Social Democratic Party of the Prime Minister (Mr Bratteli).
