The secretariat has received two submissions with views on the proposals contained in the documents mentioned above, one from Norway and one from Spain on behalf of the European Community and its member States, and Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Romania, Slovakia and Slovenia.
