In its revised 2014 budget, the new government in Norway proposes to spend NOK 143.3 billion of Norway's wealth fund to plug the mainland deficit hole - the highest amount ever budgeted by any Norwegian government and 23.1% higher than the actual figure for 2013.
In line with previous governments, this government too will be a big spender by the looks of things and is off to a good start to become the biggest spender yet.
