The Commission considered these conclusions a "milestone” and underlined that the EU education ministers have an interest in being more closely involved in the debate about the reforms called for in the country-specific recommendations, since their policy relevance seems set to increase further: they are likely to play a key role in selecting priorities for future interventions under the structural funds.
Komisjon pidas kõnealuseid järeldusi väga oluliseks sammuks ning toonitas, et ELi haridusministrid soovivad aktiivsemalt osaleda arutelus riigispetsiifilistes soovitustes soovitatud reformide teemal, kuna nende poliitiline tähtsus tundub aina suurenevat: ilmselt on nendel reformidel oluline roll struktuurifondide kohaste tulevaste sekkumiste prioriteetide valimisel.
