translate English to French: Although it can only be regretted that the Member States did not accept the Convention's proposal, which Parliament was strongly in favour of, that a genuinely separate Legislative Council should be created, it may be considered that the essential aspect of this proposal, which was that meetings should be held in public and that the Council's legislative work should be transparent, has been preserved.
Même si on doit regretter que les Etats membres n'aient pas suivi la proposition de la Convention, à laquelle le Parlement tenait beaucoup, de la création d'un vrai Conseil législatif autonome, on peut cependant considérer que l'aspect essentiel de cette proposition, l'assurance de la publicité et de la transparence de l'activité législative du Conseil, a été préservé.
