Especially frustrating, since, as the article points out, Norway is party to the Aarhus convention which specifically requires that environmental cases should not be "prohibitively expensive" ("uoverkommelig dyre"), but the government excluded "side costs" such as lawyers' fees and expert witnesses from their estimated cost of a trial [1]
