There were no casualties, but several staff members of the Correctional Services Department were injured. Regular work will resume as soon as possible and the Ministry of Justice has been temporarily relocated to the Police Academy in Oslo.
Care for staff members
The main priority is first of all the care for staff members, those directly affected, but also those that were not present in the building during the attack. In addition to professional help being offered, there are information meetings. The staff is also offered to meet in more informal settings.
- Currently, our priority is to take care of one another. It is important to stay together and talk about what has happened. Everyone also need information, and we are now systematically addressing this, says director general Marianne Vollan.
