OSLO, July 5 (Reuters) - Norway's labour minister has
summoned oil and gas industry executives and a striking labour
union to a meeting on Tuesday, just hours before the conflict is
due to escalate at midnight local time, a ministry spokesperson
said.
    The government has the power to intervene in strikes under
certain circumstances, and summons from the labour minister is
often a sign that a strike will end.
