VR's Election Committee has ruled that all 14 individual candidacies for the Board of VR for the election period 2024-2026 have been legally presented.

The candidates for the Board of VR are, in alphabetical order:

Arnþór Sigurðsson

Bjarni Þór Sigurðsson
Diljá Ámundadóttir Zoega
Harpa Sævarsdóttir
Jónas Hauksson
Jónas Yngvi Ásgrímsson

Sigrún Guðmundsdóttir

No counter nomination was received against the list of VR‘s Consultative Council, and it is therefore considered legally elected.

VR‘s Election Committee will advertise the arrangements for the election in more detail in the next days. More information about the candidates and their priorities will be published on the VR website soon.
