		Instead, Norske Skog hopes to be in a position to proceed with the long planned installation of a new PM at the PISA mill by the second half of this year.

		Another of Norske Skog's concerns, the tax regime in Brazil, is often considered to be the main reason why there has been no additional newsprint capacity installed in the region since the PISA mill started up 16 years ago, and also why Klabin has decided to exit the grade.
