Many companions retuned to Spain, 12.000 Spanish sailors are still waiting for some kind of social rights from Norway or the refund of their taxes. Since the 1990s these Spanish sailors are still waiting for their rigths and that sad, social crime and shameful situation is repaired by Norway because it has been commited by their governments repeatedly for 30 years or more with 12.000 Spanish workers.

They have asked pollytically from the Parliament to the Norwegian State to decide upon it´s situation. But no one is pronounced.
