The Minister of Digitalisation and Public Governance (Norwegian: Digitaliserings- og forvaltningsminister) is a ministerial position in the Norwegian government responsible for the government's digitalisation policies and coordinating its UN sustainability goals. Furthermore, the position's responsibilities are related to work and issues related to electronic communication, state building, property management, and the administrative responsibility for the county governors.[1] In 2020, the title was changed to Minister of Regional Development and Digitalisation. In addition to digitalization policies, the minister was also responsible for overlooking the regional and district policies, privacy and policies related to the Sami people and other minorities in the country.[2] The position was re-established in 2023, with Karianne Tung's appointment. It was also renamed Minister of Digitalisation and Public Governance and given its own ministry, the Ministry of Digitalisation and Public Governance, from 1 January 2024.[3][4]
