These can be found in Sections 45 to 50a of the Patents Act (Act No. 9 of December 15, 1967). There are different grounds for obtaining a compulsory licence, with different requirements to be considered by the competent authority. More information can be found [here](https://e-courses.epo.org/wbts_int/CompulsoryLicensing/CL_NO.pdf). ## Compulsory licences Norway has been requested to issue a compulsory licence for [[Nusinersen]] by MPs. The compulsory licence has not been issued because it was rejected.
