Seanad debates
Wednesday, 26 November 2003
Address by Mr. Joe McCartin, MEP.
When Norway joined Schengen and the Free Trade Agreement with the European Union, it accepted all the rules of the Single Market. In fact, Norway accepted the laws other people made while it had no say. Later a lady approached me from the audience and said that they had a little discussion group and someone referred to Norway as the fax democracy. In other words, it was a reference to people who get their laws on the fax machine from Brussels.
