New Recipients of Disability Pensions, 1985 and 1990, 1996.

Statistics Norway conducts regular living conditions surveys on a regular basis to chart the living conditions and living conditions for the Norwegian population. Studies have been conducted in 1973, 1980, 1983, 1987, 1991 and 1995. In 1995, a parallel survey for persons in this catagory was also conducted in order to study living conditions for recipients of basic income from the National Insurance Scheme. It may be interesting to know that a living condition survey was carried out among beneficiaries in 1990, in 1990 a data collection on economic and social welfare was also conducted and in 1991 a survey of new disabilities in 1985 and 1990. These are all of interest as a basis for comparison for the present investigation. In addition, a survey was carried out among young people in 1980.
