+xInteresting read. Seems they still want access to the same sort of information that SIS II gives, despite not being in the EU or the Schengen Zone, and having no CJEU restrictions. Can't see how that is possible. I'd assumed the likes of non EU countries like Norway only had access because they agreed to freedom of movement. The non EU countries they cite are EFTA countries, although technically no CJEU involvement, EFTA isn't practically any different. I don't hear the EFTA countries rant in about sovereignty every 5 mins. More cakeism I guess, unless I'm misunderstanding. There have also been a number of stories saying that the UK has illegally mass-copied loads of data from SIS II so that I can still see information on foreign offenders after it stops using the system. Won't impact UK nationals with convictions but will affect EU citizens travelling here legitimately, as the information will be irrelevant and out of date.
