Nonetheless, plenty of EU driven rules apply in Norway. So gp’s statement could be true.

Mostly around trade, so that Norwegian products can be sold in the EU and vice versa without secondary inspections. Only 21% of EU laws apply to Norway, and I don’t see any evidence that the EU could do anything like force Norway to privatize things.
