assessing the commitments made by Member States in their National Reform

Programmes and Stability and Convergence Programmes, as well as (where

relevant) those announced under the Euro Plus Pact;

and endorsing on this basis the country-specific opinions and recommendations.

The European Council will also take stock of progress on all other strands of the

responsibility, solidarity and increased practical cooperation;

the assessment of the implementation of rules governing the freedom of

movement of people within the Schengen area and the reflection on their

possible improvement;

the completion of the Common European Asylum System;

and the development of a comprehensive partnership with the countries of the
