Well that's exactly it - there is no one-size-fits-all arrangement for non-EU members of the EEA. It depends on the unique circumstances in each case.

The thing that concerns me is both these deals were a prelude to join not leave, leaving will be a nightmare, they won't make the process easy, if nothing else to put others of doing the same and it'll take years to get any sort of deal achieved let alone a good one.
