- README, the note (abstract, introduction, section 10), the two-page
summary and the slides now point to the plugin dynamisk-rettsstat, with
link. The slides get a new slide 16 about it (17 slides in all); the
summary gets a box with both links and stays on two pages.
- New limitation in section 10: in the models with a court queue the
starting point is close to, but not exactly, an equilibrium. Without any
shock crime drifts from 1.000 to 1.018 and the processing time from 3.0
to 4.6 months over 240 months. No numbers, tables or figures change.
- PDFs rebuilt: note 59 pages (was 58), summary 2, slides 17 (was 16).
- sim.py, diagnose.py, forlop.py and paper/data are unchanged.

Seventeen independent read-only reviews (figures and sources, the diagnosis
tool, the mathematics, simulation numbers, appendix C, references, claims,
language, layout, summary and slides, README and repo, cross-document
consistency), each followed by an independent verifier. Every fix below was
checked against the source or recomputed before it was applied.
Norwegian diagnosis (paper/norge_2025.json, README):
- The prison outflow mixed units: it multiplied "cases handled" (16 000) by
the share of enforced cases. It now uses enforced cases (KDI annual report
2025, p. 70: 5 180 in the community = 58 %, so about 3 750 in prison), and
the queue excludes sentences waiting for electronic monitoring.
- Result changes: prison and police/prosecution tie at utilisation 1,09; the
tool points to prison on backlog growth. README says the difference is
smaller than the uncertainty and lists the sensitivity (1,06 to 1,10).
- Police backlog taken directly from POD report 1/2026 fig. 3.2.1 (31 908
vs 30 295); page references to the courts report corrected (15 and 18).
diagnose.py:
- Norwegian error messages instead of tracebacks for bad input; same
expansion threshold as sim.py; tie message; honest wording when no
forecast is given, when the constraint is the first link, and when a
backlog grows with no link above full utilisation.
Note, summary and slides (PDFs rebuilt: 58, 2 and 16 pages):
- b_sat in (13') lacked the factor 1/T-bar; lowest trust in appendix C is
0,33, not 0,47; nine numbers rounded or quoted wrongly; one sensitivity
sentence was wrong for mu_4; the abstract claimed more police effort does
not reduce crime, which the model contradicts.
- The decommissioning rule is described as the code implements it.
- Three references corrected, one added (Srivastav et al. 2019).
- Core sentence quoted verbatim in README and section 9.
- Layout: duplicate hyperref targets, the overfull box in table 1, three
figures with colliding labels, one stranded heading.
- Summary and slides no longer say "not tested on Norwegian data"; slide 16
gives the repository address.
sim.py and paper/data/ are untouched.

The abstract, introduction, conclusion and summary note now present the
model as a tool that goes from observed numbers to the binding link, the
type of measure (Theory of Constraints), how strong it can be (stability
condition) and its effect on the rest of the chain and on trust. The three
contributions are reframed as the three parts of that tool, and the
novelty table gets a first row for it.
New subsection 9.5 runs the tool step by step (a-g) on a full court and
compares its recommendation with the obvious alternatives (new table,
numbers taken from the existing runs). The summary note stays at two
pages. sim.py and paper/data/ are unchanged.

New appendix C "Fra ligning til kode": for each of the 39 numbered
equations, the function and lines in sim.py that compute it, the figure
or table it feeds, and its status (18 implemented, 11 simplified, 10 not
implemented), plus a table tracing every figure and table to code and
data file. Documents small code-text differences (cap in the xi rule,
latched binding and dead zone in the coordinated rule, two-sided quality
loop). Introduction points to the appendix. sim.py and paper/data/ are
unchanged; main.tex builds with no undefined references.

- Abstract: states first what is known and already done (dynamic optimal
enforcement, chain forecasting in NL and SE, Norway's planned forecasting
model and police priority analysis), then the three contributions with
the coordination result first: forecasts are not enough.
- Introduction: prior and ongoing work now precedes "Bidrag" and ends in a
table (tab:nytt) separating known in research / in use / under way in
Norway / new here. "Bidrag" is rewritten to the three new things; the rest
of the framework is labelled as mainly built on known work.
- Conclusion: one paragraph on what the result means for the chain
forecasting model the ministry expects, limited to the court link that
the model actually simulates.
- Summary (notat): new section "Hva som finnes, og hva som er nytt"; key
finding retitled "prognoser er ikke nok"; tightened to stay at two pages
(margins 16 -> 14 mm, figure height 2.8 -> 2.5 cm, shorter source line).
Built with pdflatex (TeX Live 2026): main 52 pages, notat 2 pages, no
undefined references. pdf/ is not replaced yet; that is the next part.

- Forsøksloven (1992, amended 2021) already allows four-year trials in public
administration, but only for organisation and task allocation and never by
restricting rights; trials with procedure and sanction forms need their own
legal basis.
- A general sunset act for regulations was rejected by the Storting in 2001
(Innst. O. nr. 77 (2000-2001)); the proposal here covers intrusive powers only.
- Riksrevisjonen, Dokument 3:13 (2007-2008), found deadline breaches across
several links of the chain.
- NOU 2020:11, p. 197, records a minority of the previous court commission
warning that one oversized link creates bottlenecks.
All four were read in the primary source (Lovdata, stortinget.no,
riksrevisjonen.no, regjeringen.no PDF). Not built: TeX not installed yet.

The prior-work paragraph claimed novelty for the coupling only, but left out
three bodies of work a reviewer would raise:
- dynamic optimal law enforcement (Feichtinger and Tragler 2002; Tragler,
Caulkins and Feichtinger 2001; Grass et al. 2008)
- whole-chain forecasting models already used for justice budgets
(Netherlands PMJ since 2004, Swedish joint forecasts since 2008,
England and Wales MoJ projections, NSW simulation model)
- Norwegian work under way (joint chain statistics until a forecasting
model is ready, 2023; police priority-effectiveness assignment due
31.12.2026; Riksadvokaten's priorities, stable over time by its own account)
Also adds harm-focused policing (ONS 2016, Sherman 2013, Ratcliffe 2015),
risk-based regulation (Black and Baldwin 2010), Pontell 1985, Olaya et al.
2018, Hao et al. 2026 (preprint, marked as such) and Azaria et al. 2023. The
contribution is restated as three things: the stability analysis of the
delayed loop, the coupling in one model, and the shared-constraint method.
Every new reference was checked against Crossref or the publisher's or
issuer's own document. pdf/ is not rebuilt: no TeX installation here.
