"I voted for this report on the EU-Norway agreement concerning additional trade preferences in agricultural products. As a member of the European Economic Area, Norway benefits from the internal market, but agriculture and fisheries are excluded from free circulation under the 1992 agreement. From March 2008 to January 2010, new negotiations were held and resulted in the present draft agreement, which includes provisions relating to these areas. The additional full liberalisation is particularly significant, representing around 20% of EU exports to Norway, or EUR 250 million. In total, some 60% of agricultural trade in terms of trade value between the Kingdom of Norway and the European Union will be completely free. However, for more sensitive products, such as meat, dairy products, fruit, vegetables and ornamental plants, Norway will grant some tariff quotas or tariff reductions. The agricultural trade balance is now leaning towards the EU and the agreement is balanced, as it does not favour either candidate."@en1
