lpv:translated text	". According to the conclusions of the Lisbon European Council, the aim of the open method of coordination is ‘to disseminate best practice and ensure greater convergence towards the main EU goals’. The way in which OMC has been applied, however, reveals certain weaknesses. Hence the need for clarification, specifically in defining the matters to which it should apply; in mobilising all national players to ensure that participation in the process is not wholly confined to a small elite; in coordinating it with other Community instruments, making this method a complement to legislation and not ‘alternative legislation in disguise’. This is why we should give our support to the recommendation to include in the future Constitutional Treaty an article specifically relating to OMC, defining its form and procedures. I also welcome the call for the Committee on Women’s Rights and Equal Opportunities to be consulted on issues that fall within its sphere of competence and I recognise the merit of the European Commission’s drawing up a study on the effectiveness of the method. The proposed measures will certainly help to improve OMC and I have therefore voted in favour of this excellent report."@en1
