> in any EU country except for Denmark

If any EU lawyers know, why is Denmark excluded? Have they opt-out of this?

Edit: even UK has this procedure (before their exit), so probably an explicit opt-out.

It doesn't really say why, I'd like to know as well.

Could be. AFAIK, Denmark has several opt-outs on EU laws, just like UK had.
