„In Norway, children are entitled to a place in publicly subsidised kindergartens from the age of 1. The Kindergarten Agreement of 2003 initiated a series of comprehensive policy changes to enhance participation and address availability and cost barriers in the sector. Public funding for the sector tripled between 2003 and 2011 to enable the provision of kindergarten places under reduced parental fees. […] An individual statutory right to a kindergarten place for all children aged 1-5 entered into force in 2009.“
