Norway's labour minister summons striking oil union and employers to meeting

Norway's labour minister has summoned oil and gas industry executives and a striking labour union to a meeting on Tuesday, just hours before the conflict is due to escalate at midnight local time, a ministry spokesperson said.

The government has the power to intervene in strikes under certain circumstances, and summons from the labour minister is often a sign that a strike will end.
