Thank you, Uffe. If that's the one as

then it's probably as "official" as it could ever get. I only wonder what is with the Ø character being only once there (capital in the lowercase set). But I don't know those languages enough (I only understand a bit due to all them being German family) to judge if this is a language specific peculiarity or there were other reasons for not having both upper and lowercase variants like with Æ and Å.
