Hi John,

I do agree with your statement.The EFTA countries have to follow EU legislation 
and that is why the EMC directive is implemented into Norwegain law.
But I still think there was some discussion about the Canada-EU MRA, which 
omitted the EFTA counties from the MRA, because they actually was not a part of 
EU and that both US and Canada did not want to include them into the agreement.

Can any MRA experts give us a call and help us ?

Best regards
Amund Westin, Oslo/Norway
