A new proposal suggests the government may soon intervene more quickly and set earlier curbs on RV, the national broadcaster.

Domestic life currently requires caution: residents in one district have been advised to boil their drinking water, while the owners of the Gullfoss Cafe have built up a private fund just as the state spent 170 million ISK on local trails. Meanwhile, a journalist who purchased illegal peptides and sent them for analysis has revealed exactly what was in the vials.
