"Undervisningskomponenten skal vere prioriteringsnøytral. Det skal ikkje løne seg for institusjonane å produsere meir av éin type studiepoeng enn andre. Endringane i avlagde studiepoeng mellom kategoriane har ikkje vore store."

priority neutral
I think the Norwegian term is fairly new in Norwegian. It is related to costs and in English I found the term "cost neutral".
So why not introduce a new term to the English language. If you understand it, like I have learned to understand the Norwegian term, I think you could use it.

Comment: "I think I'll go for this, Vedis, though with a hyphenated version (priority-neutral). Thanks."

Another suggestion is that the teaching component should remain neutral and does not give preference to institutions.
