(2) Ta sporazum ne vpliva na institucionalno strukturo, določeno z zakonodajo Evropske unije za namen delovanja programa Galileo. Sporazum tudi ne vpliva na veljavne regulativne ukrepe, s katerimi se izvajajo obveznosti o neširjenju in nadzor uvoza, nadzor nematerialnega prenosa tehnologije ali nacionalni varnostni ukrepi.

(1) Pogodbenice sodelujejo pri vprašanjih radijskega spektra, ki zadevajo evropske satelitske navigacijske sisteme v okviru Mednarodne telekomunikacijske zveze (ITU), pri čemer upoštevajo »Memorandum o soglasju glede vodenja postopkov v zvezi sistemom radijskih navigacijskih satelitskih storitev Galileo pri Mednarodni telekomunikacijski zvezi«, podpisan 5. novembra 2004.
(2) V tem okviru pogodbenice zaščitijo ustrezno dodeljene frekvence za evropske satelitske navigacijske sisteme, da bi uporabnikom zagotovile dostop do storitev teh sistemov.
(3) Poleg tega pogodbenice priznavajo pomen zaščite navigacije prek radijskega spektra pred oviranjem in motnjami. V ta namen opredelijo vire motenj in iščejo obojestransko sprejemljive rešitve za boj proti takim motnjam.
(4) Nobena določba tega sporazuma se ne razlaga tako, kot da odstopa od veljavnih določb ITU, vključno s Pravilnikom o radiokomunikacijah ITU.

(1) Norveška sprejme vse izvedljive ukrepe za čim lažjo namestitev, vzdrževanje in obnovitev zemeljskih zmogljivosti evropskih programov GNSS (»zemeljske zmogljivosti«) na ozemljih pod svojo pristojnostjo.
(2) Norveška sprejme vse izvedljive ukrepe za zaščito ter trajno in nemoteno delovanje zemeljskih zmogljivosti na svojih ozemljih, vključno z uporabo organov kazenskega pregona, kadar je to potrebno. Norveška obenem uporabi vsa praktična sredstva, da navedene zmogljivosti zaščiti pred lokalnimi radijskimi motnjami, računalniškimi vdori in poskusi prisluškovanja.
(3) O pogodbenih razmerjih glede zemeljskih zmogljivosti se dogovorita Evropska komisija in imetnik lastninskih pravic. Norveški organi bodo v celoti upoštevali poseben status zemeljskih zmogljivosti in se, če je le mogoče, pred vsakim ukrepanjem v zvezi z zemeljskimi zmogljivostmi predhodno dogovorili z Evropsko komisijo.
(4) Norveška vsem osebam, ki jih imenuje ali kako drugače pooblasti Evropska unija, omogoči trajen in neoviran dostop do zemeljskih zmogljivosti. Norveška v ta namen vzpostavi kontaktno točko, ki sprejema podatke o osebah, ki potujejo do zemeljskih zmogljivosti, in omogoča čim lažje gibanje in delovanje teh oseb v praksi.
(5) Carinski organi ali policija ne preverjajo arhivov in opreme zemeljskih zmogljivosti ter dokumentov v tranzitu, ne glede na to, v kakšni obliki so in ali imajo uradni žig ali oznako.
(6) Če sta varnost zemeljskih zmogljivosti ali njihovo delovanje ogrožena, Norveška in Evropska komisija nemudoma obvestita druga drugo o dogodku in ukrepih za ureditev razmer. Evropska komisija lahko za izmenjavo takšnih informacij dodatno imenuje zanesljivo pravno ali fizično osebo kot kontaktno osebo z Norveško.
(7) Pogodbenice se o podrobnejših postopkih v zvezi z vprašanji iz odstavkov 1 do 6 dogovorijo v ločenem sporazumu. Takšni postopki morajo med drugim vsebovati pojasnila v zvezi s pregledi, obveznostmi kontaktnih točk, zahtevami glede kurirjev in o ukrepih v primeru lokalnih radijskih motenj in sovražnih dejanj.

(1) Pogodbenice so prepričane, da je treba globalne satelitske navigacijske sisteme zaščiti pred grožnjami, kot so zloraba, interferenca, motnje in sovražna dejanja. Pogodbenice zato sprejmejo vse praktične ukrepe, vključno, kadar je to primerno, z ločenimi sporazumi za zagotovitev kontinuitete, varnosti in zaščite storitev satelitske navigacije ter z njimi povezane infrastrukture in ključnih zmogljivosti na svojih ozemljih.
Evropska Komisija namerava določiti ukrepe za nadzor in upravljanje občutljivih zmogljivosti, informacij in tehnologij evropskih programov GNSS ter za njihovo zaščito pred tovrstnimi grožnjami in neželenim širjenjem.
(2) Norveška v tem okviru potrjuje svojo namero, da v svojo zakonodajo pravočasno uvede ukrepe za enako stopnjo varnosti in zaščite, kot velja v Evropski uniji, in jih uveljavi.
Zaradi vsega naštetega bodo pogodbenice obravnavale varnostna vprašanja v zvezi s programi GNSS, vključno z akreditacijo strukture upravljanja evropskih programov GNSS v ustreznih odborih. Praktične rešitve in postopki se opredelijo v poslovnikih ustreznih odborov, pri čemer se upošteva okvir Sporazuma EGP.
(3) Če ni mogoče zagotoviti enakovredne stopnje varnosti in zaščite, se pogodbenice medsebojno posvetujejo, z namenom da uredijo razmere. Po potrebi se obseg sodelovanja na tem področju ustrezno prilagodi.

(1) Izmenjava in zaščita tajnih podatkov Unije poteka v skladu s »Sporazumom med Kraljevino Norveško in Evropsko unijo o varnostnih postopkih za izmenjavo tajnih podatkov, podpisanim 22. novembra 2004, ter dogovori o izvajanju navedenega Varnostnega sporazuma.
(2) Norveška lahko zaupne informacije z oznako nacionalne stopnje tajnosti o Galileo izmenja s tistimi državami članicami, s katerimi je za ta namen sklenila bilateralne sporazume.
(3) Pogodbenice skušajo vzpostaviti celovit in skladen pravni okvir za izmenjavo zaupnih informacij o programu Galileo med sabo.

(1) Da bi med pogodbenicami zagotovila enotno politiko nadzora izvoza in neširjenja v zvezi z Galileo, Norveška potrjuje svojo namero, da v svojo zakonodajo pravočasno uvede ukrepe za enakovredno stopnjo nadzora izvoza in neširjenja tehnologij Galileo, podatkov in predmetov, kot velja v Uniji in njenih državah članicah, ter jih uveljavi.
(2) Če ni mogoče zagotoviti enakovredne stopnje nadzora izvoza in neširjenja, se pogodbenice posvetujejo, z namenom da uredijo razmere. Po potrebi se obseg sodelovanja na tem področju ustrezno prilagodi.

Norveška je izrazila svoj interes za PRS v okviru programa Galileo, saj meni, da gre za pomemben del njenega sodelovanja v evropskih programih GNSS. Pogodbenice sklenejo, da bodo to vprašanje obravnavale, takoj ko bodo opredeljene politike in operativni sporazumi o dostopu do PRS.

(1) Pogodbenice priznavajo pomen usklajevanja pristopov na mednarodnih forumih za standardizacijo in homologacijo glede globalnih storitev satelitske navigacije. Predvsem bodo pogodbenice skupno podpirale razvoj standardov Galileo in spodbujale njihovo uporabo po vsem svetu ter poudarjale interoperabilnost z drugimi programi GNSS.
(2) Da bi spodbujale in izvajale cilje tega sporazuma, bodo pogodbenice po potrebi sodelovale pri vseh vprašanjih glede programov GNSS, ki se pojavijo predvsem v Mednarodni organizaciji za civilni letalski promet, Mednarodni pomorski organizaciji in ITU.

Norway shall take all means practicable to maintain the facilities free from local radio interference, hacking and eavesdropping attempts.
3. The contractual relationships regarding the ground facilities will be agreed upon between the European Commission and the holder of the property rights. The Norwegian authorities will fully respect the special status of the ground facilities and seek prior agreement with the European Commission, whenever possible, before any action concerning ground facilities is taken.
4. Norway shall allow continuous and unhindered access to the ground facilities to all persons designated or otherwise authorized by the European Union. For this purpose, Norway shall establish a contact point that shall receive information on persons travelling to the ground facilities and otherwise facilitate the movements and operations of such persons in practice.
5. The archives and equipment of the ground facilities and documents in transit, whatever their form, under official seal or marking shall not be subject to inspections by customs or police.
6. In the case of a threat or compromise against the security of ground facilities or their operation, Norway and the European Commission shall, without delay, inform each other of the event and steps to remedy the situation. The European Commission may designate another trusted entity to act as the contact point with Norway for such information.
7. The Parties will establish more detailed procedures concerning the issues in paragraphs 1 to 6 in a separate arrangement. Such procedures should cover, inter alia, clarifications concerning inspections, duties of the contact points, requirements for couriers and on measures against local radio frequency interference and hostile attempts.

Consequently, the Parties shall take all practicable steps including, where appropriate, separate agreements, to ensure the continuity, safety and security of the satellite navigation services and the related infrastructure and critical assets in their territories.
The European Commission intends to develop measures to protect, control and manage sensitive assets, information and technologies of the European GNSS Programmes against such threats and undesired proliferation.
2. In this context Norway confirms its intention to timely adopt and enforce, within its jurisdiction, measures providing an equivalent degree of security and safety as those applicable in the European Union.
In recognition of this, the Parties will address GNSS security issues including accreditation in the relevant committees of the governance structure of European GNSS. The practical arrangements and procedures are to be defined in the rules of procedures of the relevant committees taking also into account the framework of the EEA Agreement.
3. Should an event occur where such an equivalent degree of security and safety cannot be achieved the Parties shall hold consultations with a view to remedy the situation. Where appropriate, the scope of cooperation in this sector could be adjusted accordingly.

1. Exchange and protection of Union’s classified information shall be in accordance with the Agreement between the Kingdom of Norway and the European Union on security procedures for the exchange of classified information(*3) signed on 22 November 2004, as well as the Implementing arrangements of that Agreement.
2. Norway may exchange classified information with national classification marking on Galileo with those Member States with which it has concluded bilateral agreements to that effect.
3. The Parties shall seek to establish a comprehensive and coherent legal framework allowing exchanges between them of classified information concerning the Galileo programme.

1. In order to ensure the application of a uniform policy of export controls and non-proliferation concerning Galileo between the Parties, Norway confirms its intention to timely adopt and enforce, within its jurisdiction, measures providing an equivalent degree of export control and a non-proliferation of Galileo technologies, data and items as those applicable in the Union and its Member States.
2. Should an event occur where such an equivalent degree of export control and a non-proliferation cannot be achieved, the Parties shall hold consultations with a view to remedy the situation. Where appropriate, the scope of cooperation in this sector could be adjusted accordingly.

Norway has expressed its interest in the Galileo PRS, considering it an important element of its participation in the European GNSS Programs. The Parties agree to address this issue once the policies and operational arrangements governing access to the PRS have been defined.

1. The Parties recognise the value of coordinating approaches in international standardisation and certification fora concerning global satellite navigation services. In particular, the Parties will jointly support the development of Galileo standards and promote their application worldwide, emphasising interoperability with other GNSS.
2. Consequently, in order to promote and implement the objectives of this Agreement, the Parties shall, as appropriate, cooperate on all GNSS matters that arise, notably in the International Civil Aviation Organisation, the International Maritime Organisation and the ITU.

The Parties shall promptly consult, at the request of any of them, on any question arising out of the interpretation or application of this Agreement. Any disputes concerning the interpretation or application of this Agreement shall be settled through consultation between the Parties.

1. This Agreement shall enter into force the first day of the month following that in which the Parties have notified each other of the completion of the procedures necessary for this purpose.
Notifications shall be sent to the General Secretariat of the Council which shall be the depository of this Agreement.
2. The expiration or termination of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or duration of any arrangements made under it or any specific rights and obligations that have accrued in the field of intellectual property rights.
3. This Agreement may be amended by mutual agreement of the Parties in writing. Any amendment shall enter into force on the date of receiving the last diplomatic note informing the other Party that their respective internal procedures necessary for its entry into force have been completed.
4.
