".
I wish to congratulate Mr Duff and Mr Voggenhuber on their excellent report on the period of reflection: structure, subjects and context for an assessment on the debate on the European Union. I agree with the proposal that this period of reflection should be used for the purpose of relaunching the constitutional project on the basis of a broad public debate about the future of European integration.
I also agree with the suggestion that this new democratic dialogue, which should be seen as a chance to promote European democracy, should be conducted and coordinated across the Union, structured by common themes and in realistic stages according to an agreed framework for evaluation, and designed to lead to decisive political choices.
I also recognise that it is strategically important for political institutions to encourage a pro-active attitude on the part of the media (in particular television, the press and local radio) and to enlist them for the purpose of publicising and intensifying the debate.
I agree, moreover, that the conclusions of the period of reflection should be drawn at the latest during the second half of 2007, and that a clear decision be reached at that stage about how to proceed with the Constitution, and that, in any case, every effort should be made to ensure that the Constitution enters into force during 2009."@en1
