Brexit, Norway and the EEA

‘Brexit, Scotland & the EEA: The Nordic half-way house option’

Tuesday 20th March 6pm to 8pm

Scottish Parliament

Sponsored by Ivan McKee MSP

 Brexit makes it more likely Scotland will soon be negotiating its own relationship with Europe. But what will that be? Full EU membership or the expensive "halfway house" inhabited by Norway and Iceland?

What's life like in the EEA? Frustrating - since decisions and regulations are made elsewhere. But worthwhile?

Christophe Hillion is professor of European Law at the universities of Leiden and Oslo and researcher at the Norwegian Institute of International Affairs and at the Swedish Institute for European Policy Studies. He has advised several European governments on EU legal issues.

He discussed the impact of Brexit on the EU and on the EEA.

Here are the videos relating to the recent visit of Professor Christophe Hillion. There are two. One is a short interview which summarises the key points of how the Nordic halfway house, the EEA, actually works. The other is the complete recording of the whole Nordic Horizons presentation including speaker responses and Q&A.
