"Norway is our closest partner out of the non-EU Member States in terms of cooperation on Europe’s GALILEO and European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS) global navigation satellite systems (GNSS). Norway has long contributed from a political, technological and financial perspective to all phases of the GALILEO project through its membership of the European Space Agency (ESA) and its informal participation going back several years in EC management structures related to the GALILEO programme. The agreement formalising cooperation between Norway and EU over satellite navigation also sets out general principles of cooperation, as well as the rights and obligations of Norway in these areas (in particular, security), to which the existing
relating to the GALILEO system does not apply. The agreement is necessary because two important ground stations that will contribute to the proper functioning of the system will be installed in Norway. In this context, Norway is adopting a political commitment that it will contribute to the future EU policy on the protection of European GNSS systems.
The Commission negotiated the agreement with Norway, and it was signed on 22 September 2010. Ratification by all of the Member States is, however, essential. It is right for the agreement between the EU and Norway to be applied provisionally, until such time as it enters into force."@en1
