Motion Text
That this House joins the people in Norway in celebrating Norwegian Constitution Day, marking the signing of the Constitution of Norway at Eidsvoll on 17th May 1814; notes the importance of this day as the foundation of a country that has since been a long standing friend and ally of the UK; acknowledges that Norway has prospered magnificently as an independent nation within the boundaries of Europe; and further notes the importance of maintaining the deeply entrenched links between the UK and Norway for many centuries to come.
