Govt up and running despite damage

OSLO - Norway's preparedness paid off on Monday as a supreme feat of logistics saw work resume at 15 relocated ministries less than three days after a bomb wiped out the physical heart of government.

Only three ministries were left unscathed by Friday's massive blast that left Oslo's administrative center looking like a war zone, killing at least seven people and leaving many traumatized.

Rigmor Aasrud, Minister of Government Administration, Reform and Church, is the woman in charge of rehousing up to 2,000 government employees who used to work in 162,000 square meters of office space.
