REPORT 03/2005 drawn up on the Council?s initiative, on Foreign Cooperation and Activities
The Report says that international cooperation should be more geared towards promoting governance, institutional reform and the role of the social partners in developing countries. As to the Council?s activities abroad, support for its foreign cooperation work should continue, centred on institutions for dialogue between the economic and social partners.On the basis of its own experience as an advisory and participatory body, the Council has for years been engaging in international cooperation with a view to supporting institutionalised dialogue processes in other countries and geographic areas, and especially those with which Spain has particular links.The Council?s foreign cooperation policy is driven by two basic aims: promoting rapprochement and dialogue between the economic and social partners, especially in matters relating to the development strategies of each country, and cooperating in the formation of institutions through which the partners may engage in that dialogue.As to the priority geographic areas for the Council?s foreign cooperation, there are many strong reasons for continuing along the lines of its previous cooperation with the countries, or regional integration forums, of Latin America and the Mediterranean. The Council?s cooperation efforts should continue to be concentrated on these regions, especially as regards the more stable and scheduled form of cooperation requiring the allocation of specific human and budgetary resources.

OPINION 4/2005 on the Draft Royal Decree adopting the Regulations on State-administered foundations
The Council generally welcomes this bill, considering that its provisions are likely to ensure that foundations are managed properly and efficiently. It notes that on occasion there is an excess of regulatory zeal that may give rise to bureaucratic difficulties. It also considers that it is inappropriate for the Foundations Protectorate to be empowered to pass judgment on the fitness of legal transactions made by foundations.
