"Thank you, Mr President. I would also thank the President-in-Office of the Council for this response, but you will appreciate, Mr President-in-Office, that this cannot, of course, give us MEPs any satisfaction. We set great store by the employment strategy. The open method of co-ordination can be very effective, provided that it is democratic and transparent. As it happens, it is not democratic, for the national parliaments and the European Parliament are not sufficiently involved. Neither is it transparent, because even the evaluations that are made of national action plans, paid for with European money, and the studies carried out by the Committee on Social Policy and Employment Policy are not accessible to the players, who, in fact, are required to guarantee the democratic legitimacy of this employment strategy. What does the Council Presidency intend to do about this? Are you not of the opinion that the democracy and transparency of this employment strategy and the open method of co-ordination should be enhanced? Funded with European money, no less!"@en1
