NAV scandal

In October 2019, it became known that the NAV authority, which was subordinate to her as Minister of Social Affairs, had been cutting benefits for several years for people without a legal basis and that this resulted in prison sentences. Hauglie was mainly accused by the opposition parties in Storting of waiting too long after the facts became known internally, so that further wrong decisions and judgments could be made. A vote of no confidence initiated by Rødt politician Bjørnar Moxnes against them in November 2019 resulted in only one vote against them in their favor. During the hearings in Storting in January 2020, the Sosialistisk Venstreparti group also spoke out in favor of supporting a vote of no confidence in them. The other opposition parties said they would wait for the hearing to end. On January 24, 2020, she resigned from the government after the Fremskrittspartiet left the government and the cabinet was reshuffled. Hauglie stated that the resignation was at his own request.

On March 31, 2020 it was announced that she would be the new CEO of the employers' association Norsk olje og gass , which advocates the interests of the Norwegian oil industry. She will take over the position of Karl Eirik Schjøtt-Pedersen .
