    <p style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
    The Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe has a long history of 
    successful constant promotion of the collaboration relations with the other 
    inter-parliamentary organisations, mainly the European Parliament, the 
    Parliamentary Assembly of the OSCE, as well as the CIS-PA and IPU or the 
    African and Latin America ones.</p>
  <p style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
  The Parliamentary Troikas for Belarus and the Stability Pact, as well as the 
  missions for the elections&#146; monitoring represent only some of the achievements 
  in the field of co-operation between parliamentary organisations.</p>
  <p style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36.0pt">However, there is no 
  formal evaluation of this co-operation based on which we could set up precise 
  and uniform patterns leading to institutionalised dialogue, contact channels 
  and co-ordinated action (both in preparation and in the follow-up of the 
  events).</p>
  <p style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
  The complex reality of the world today calls for co-ordinated and harmonised 
  steps also in the field of parliamentary diplomacy and for the set up of 
  unitary monitoring and follow-up systems based on principles rather than on a 
  case by case approach.</p>
  <p style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
  Therefore, the Parliamentary Assembly decides to consider within its statutory 
  and procedural rules the possibility to set up appropriate actions and/or 
  structures for the promotion and the strengthening of the co-operation 
  relations and co-ordination with the other international parliamentary 
  organisations and to draw up a report on this issue as soon as possible.</p>
