Hei,   jeg kan ikke se at jeg har mottatt noe svar på denne e-posten ennå, så jeg prøver å sende den på nytt.   Med vennlig hilsen Erik Ribsskog ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Erik Ribsskog <eribsskog@gmail.com> Date: Jul 7, 2008 2:22 PM Subject: Spørsmål om rettigheter innenfor EØS-området/Fwd: The European Economic Area. To: Elin.BJERKEBO@efta.int   Hei,   jeg er ikke så vant til å drive med ting som har med EU eller EFTA å gjøre, men jeg hadde noen spørsmål, angående rettighetene til innbyggere fra EFTA land som er med i EØS, og som bor i EU.   Og da sendte jeg det først til noe som heter EU Ombudsmannen, men det har jeg skjønt nå at var galt. Det er min feil, som ikke er vant til hvor man skal henvende seg, når det gjelder EU og EFTA-saker.   Men jeg har jo lest nå, på nettet osv., at det er tre EFTA land, som er med i EØS-avtalen.   Og siden jeg er fra et av de EFTA-landene, så er det vel riktig av meg, å ta opp spøsmål angående EØS- avtalen, med EFTA og ikke EU, hvis det er noe jeg lurer på, angående rettigheter osv. Har jeg ressonert riktig da?   Jeg sender med en kopi av e-posten jeg først sendte EU-ombudsmannen, samt en kopi av svaret, for å forklare mer, om hva spørsmålene gjelder. Så håper jeg at jeg har klart å sende spøsmålene riktig nå, og jeg sier på forhånd tusen takk for svar!   Med vennlig hilsen Erik Ribsskog ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Euro-Ombudsman <EO@ombudsman.europa.eu> Date: Jul 7, 2008 1:48 PM Subject: RE: The European Economic Area. To: Erik Ribsskog <eribsskog@gmail.com>   Dear Mr Ribsskog,   Thank you for your e-mail of 30 June 2008, in which you ask if you, as a Norwegian citizen living in Britain, have the right to get help from the police and the British government.   In replying to your e-mail, first, I would like to give a short presentation of the work of the European Ombudsman.   The European Ombudsman investigates complaints about maladministration by the institutions and bodies of the European Union. This means that you can complain to the Ombudsman if you consider that, for instance, the European Commission, the European Parliament or the Council of the European Union has done something wrong.   It is thus not part of the Ombudsman's function to provide you with the kind of information that you are asking for.   However, you could consider turning to EuropeDirect, which provides practical information in the official EU language of your choice about the European Union and its policies or a reference to further sources of information. You can reach the service by calling the following toll-free number from anywhere in the EU during opening hours (9h00-18h30 CET on weekdays):   00 800 6 7 8 9 10 11   Or call the standard number + 32-2-299.96.96 from anywhere in the world (normal charges apply).   You can also contact the service by sending an e-mail:   http://europedirect-cc.cec.eu.int/websubmit/?lang=en   For more information on Europe Direct, you can consult the following website:   http://ec.europa.eu/europedirect/index_en.htm   Yours sincerely,   Angela Lindberg Office of the European Ombudsman       From: Erik Ribsskog [mailto:eribsskog@gmail.com] Sent: 30 June 2008 21:58 To: Euro-Ombudsman Subject: The European Economic Area.   Hi,   I'm a Norwegian citizen living in Britain.   Here, there have been many problems, at work, and regarding a complaint against the Police etc., that I haven't got any help with. (I've also contacted the Norwegian Government, regarding these problems, but they don't answer my e-mails, and the Sivilombudsmannen, is part of a cover-up, from the Government, it seems, even if I wont explain this in detail now, but I can explain more detailed if it's needed).   I was wondering, since Norway, are part of the European Economical Area. So Norwegian citizens, are allowed, to live and work, in Britain, like if they were EU-Citizens, as I've understood it. But, I was wondering if this means, that one, as a Norwegian citizen in Britain, also has the right, to get help/advice from the Police, and other Goverment in Britain, like if one was an EU-citizen?   I think, that if one have the right to work and live in an EU-country, like the 'EFTA/EØS-agreement' says, then only has the right help from the Government, it that EU-country (the Police etc), like if one were an EU-citizen, right?   I just wanted to try to get this clear, since I'm having some problems, both with the Norwegian and the British Goverment now, so I just wanted to know, if some this could be something to do, with that one aren't that well protected by rights, if one are a Norwegian citizen living in the EU? Hope that you have the chance to answer about this, and thanks in advance for the reply!   Yours sincerely, Erik Ribsskog
