Albert Hall renovation set to cost 25 million kroner

Albert Hall, a building in Argir, is due for renovations costing 25 million kroner, KVF reports. The work includes replacing the windows and is planned for next year.

<pThe government is seeking one million kroner for the project this year through a supplementary appropriation. Finance committee minority members Sirið Stenberg and Ruth Vang advise against approving the money now, saying the 2026 financial year is already nearing its end. They say the project should instead be considered as part of the 2027 budget proposal.

The government bought the 40-year-old building 29 years ago for financial and economic institutions.

The supplementary appropriations bill is due to be put to a vote today. It shows a deficit of 25.3 million kroner, and the Finance Committee has proposed several changes to the government’s requests.
