Ahead of the convention he had submitted party-critical resolutions together with Ellen Wibe , Ellen Christine Christiansen , Oscar Hillgaar and Roy Wetterstad .

There were talks of the Progress Party demanding to take over his seat in the prestigious Standing Committee on Finance , but this did not happen
