The EU wants to introduce new legislation for the reuse of packaging. It might take Norway backwards in time if it gets approved and we don't get an exemption.
They want a system where bottles are cleaned and reused. We *abandoned* that system in favour of recycling the plastic itself. Thin PET bottles that are crushed. It has a better carbon footprint and is more efficient in many ways.

To many countries, the proposed legislation would be an improvement, but for us, it would be worse. This is often the case with EU directives. They make things better for the less developed countries but worse for the more developed ones.
