the eea and norway, liechtenstein—iceland model does not allow us to have control over how freedom ofin the future. it ties us to no say, and that is what norway, liechtenstein and iceland have signed up to, no control over freedom of movement. liechtenstein has of course been able to negotiate immigration quota system mr speaker, but it is a country of only 37,000 people. it's probably less than half the size of most of our constituencies. i do not see in all reality the exemption, a permanent exemption on free movement being afforded to a country of the size of the united kingdom, and that is why the intervention by the honourable lady, the member for don valley was an important one in the context of this debate. and for those reasons, that is why we cannot accept this amendment or indeed the original lords amendment on the eea. the honourable gentleman, the member for north perthshire is back! shall we give way? during robert buckland's speech, an snp mp returned to the chamber, having walked out when his party's leader left the commons at pmqs. the honourable gentleman, the member

efta is the group that includes just norway, iceland, liechtenstein, and switzerland. and the group as a whole has free trade deals with numerous non—eu countries. for britain, this norway model could go a long way to solving the irish conundrum. and norway is not subject to thejurisdiction of the european court ofjustice, a red line for brexiteers. but would norway want a big bear like britain in their small exclusive club? i have been asking the norwegian prime minister erna solberg what she makes of the debate. for all of us who are anxiously waiting out to find out how our relationship with britain will be after they leave the eu, it feels a bit slow because there is insecurity for businesses. what will their framework be in the future? i can understand that this is difficult and there are difficult policy options that the brits have to take on which way to go, but for the rest of us, we are a bit restless on trying to find out find out how the 2a,000 norwegians who live in britain and have been living here for a long time and who work here, how will their future b
