"We are in principle well disposed towards the proposal to create standard conflict-of-laws rules for non-contractual obligations. The proposal would supplement the Brussels Regulation on jurisdiction and the recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters, together with the Rome Convention on the law applicable to contractual obligations. It would contribute to increased legal certainty and an efficient internal market.
We think it important, however, to guarantee that the regulation does not come into conflict with freedom of the press and freedom of expression. The protection of press freedom and freedom of expression, afforded under the Swedish Constitution, must continue unchanged. Nor would it be appropriate for foreign law to be applied in assessing the permissibility of industrial action taken under Swedish law on Swedish territory.
In both these areas, it is moreover doubtful whether there is a legal basis in the EC Treaty for such a regulation. We therefore support those amendments whereby the law in the country in which the actions are carried out is applied to industrial action, and we reject the amendments entailing unacceptable interference in national rules on freedom of the press and freedom of expression."@en1
