NOC Executive Board dealing with the case of follow-up of idrettstingets decisions regarding høydehus and artificial supply of oxygen at a board meeting on Tuesday. Deciding how Norway will be working for an international ban.
Norwegian Confederation of Sports looks at both as incompatible with the spirit of sport, and working for the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) establishes a similar prohibition as the Norwegian.
– Norwegian Confederation of Sports and the Norwegian Ski Association will start working towards WADA and the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to get equal framework internationally, says idrettspresident Tom Tvedt said.
was to debate
In Norway, the prohibition to use høydehus and artificial oxygen. This was approved at the Sports Parliament in 2003.
At last year’s sports thing was the matter up for debate and a vote again, but the ban was not lifted. The decision by the Sports Parliament sports board follow up on Tuesday’s board meeting.
– This means that we should look at how we are going to work with this further internationally. It is fashioned applicable, says Tvedt.
47-year-old from Randaberg has no overview of how other countries will be at the Norges job for an international ban.
– We see how it goes when we start work. The International Ski Federation (FIS) was quickly out on the pitch when the Finns went around with backpacks with oxygen, but I do not know which countries will support it currently says Tvedt.
Alpine skiers skeptical
among others the Norwegian skiers have been skeptical of the Norwegian ban. It’s that they want equal terms with competitors.
– I perceive it so that those who have been for høydehus will have equal conditions. Then we have to go for an international ban, says Tvedt.
