English term

Hotel and Catering Decree

English to Norwegian Other Tourism & Travel
"All hotel bookings are legislated by the Hotel and Catering Decree."

Does anyone know the Norwegian translation of the H&C Decree?
I've googled my hands off, but I can't seem to find the term anywhere.

Help is very much appreciated.

Per Bergvall Apr 1, 2011:
Weird term The problem here is not the Hotel and Catering Decree. "All bookings are legislated" ... this is sufficiently weird to justify asking the customer what they are trying to say. "Legislated by the Hotel and Catering Decree" - downright ridiculous. A decree cannot perform legislation of bookings, whatever that means. This has all the markings of a poor translation from the original source, and the next translation step has every chance of making it worse still. I strongly suggest that the translatiuon into Norwegian should be done from the original (Finnish?) text, then maybe some of the weirdness could be ironed out.

lovgivning for hotell- og restaurantvirksomhet

Hvis det er snakk om et finsk hotell (eneste side med en slik formulering på www), ser det ut som et tidligere "dekret" for hotell- og restaurantvirksomhet nå er erstattet med en nyere lov:

The Act on Accommodation and Food Service Operations (308/2006) entered force on 1 October 2006. The new law replaces the Decree on Providers of Accommodation and Food Services. (Offisiell oversettelse fra det finske næringsdept.)

Jeg antar at dette skal være informasjon til norske brukere, og da er det kanskje ryddigst å si at alt faller under finsk lovgivning for hotell- og restaurantvirksomhet, eller noe i den duren.

agree Per Bergvall : Eller bare hotell- og restaurantloven. Se ellers kommentar under diskusjon.
