Slightly less eye-catching, but the actual news seems to be
> The Norwegian Directorate for Health and Social Affairs has been tasked with proposing an experimental project to identify patients likely to benefit from the programme, to examine the implementation method, and to calculate the costs...The first treatments under the project will begin in 2020 at the earliest, the health ministry said in a statement. The initiative could benefit up to 400 drug addicts, according to the daily Aftenposten.
So it is a small-scale, but still radical, experiment that may begin in a few years. This addresses my first immediate question, which was "why wouldn't this just attract heroin addicts from around Europe and beyond?".
