Icelandic EEA Protocol 35 political debate

Overview

Following a national referendum in which the majority of voters rejected continued negotiations for EU membership, political debate has emerged regarding the status of Protocol 35 of the EEA Agreement.

Sigmundur Davíð Gunnlaugsson, chairman of the Centre Party, has urged the Icelandic government to challenge potential contract violations identified by the EFTA Surveillance Authority (ESA). Gunnlaugsson contends that the specific wording of the protocol represents a “unique Icelandic solution” rather than an implementation error, and he has called for the government to defend this position in court.
