The Norwegian Police Security Service is part of the Norwegian police service, and is under the direct authority of the Ministry of Justice. We have national responsibility in specialist policing areas as determined by the Norwegian Parliament.
The chiefs of police in all police districts in the country with the exception of Oslo manage PST activities in their respective districts. They report to the Director General of The Norwegian Police Security Service in relation to PST matters.
The Commissioner of Police in Oslo Police District is exempted from duties within the remit of PST, and overall responsibility for PST activities in Oslo Police District rests with the Headquarters. PST activity in other police districts in the country is co-ordinated by and run from the Headquarters.
