    description:
    Rogaland Revisjon IKS, Bærum kommunerevisjon, Romerike Revisjon IKS, Agder Kommunerevisjon IKS og Buskerud kommunerevisjon IKS vil inngå en samarbeidsavtale om forvaltningsrevisjon. Partene i samarbeidsavtalen utfører lovpålagt forvaltningsrevisjon og selskapskontroll for kontrollutvalg i kommuner og fylkeskommuner. Samarbeidets formål er å bidra til leveransesikkerhet og til at forvaltningsrevisjoner og selskapskontroller blir utført både kostnadseffektivt og med god kvalitet til avtalt tid. Samarbeidsavtalen vil dermed gi avtalepartenes eierkommuner leveransesikkerhet og økt kvalitet ved utførelse av lovpålagte oppgaver som er felles for alle eierkommunene.Kjernen i samarbeidet er at en part kan få bistand fra de øvrige partene ved utførelsen av forvaltningsrevisjon og selskapskontroll i tilfeller hvor kompetanse- og ressurssituasjonen gjør det formålstjenlig å samarbeide. Det er en grunnleggende forutsetning at hver part både skal motta og yte bistand gjennom samarbeidet.

How an AI agent should use this page

Ground rule: Navigate with HTML GET links to keep explanations and relationships. Use the page's JSON alternative only when concrete values must be extracted, compared or computed.

How to use the search_doffin lookup

  1. Replace the placeholders in the HTML GET template; remove optional parameters you do not need.
  2. Check types, units, limits and ID formats in the parameter table.
  3. Follow linked results to canonical pages before combining sources.

Misreading to avoid: An empty list means "no results for this lookup". An error message or unavailable source does not mean the data does not exist.

Source-specific next step

Go to the source page for other operations. Use the JSON template only after the HTML result shows that the parameters and source are correct.
