During the meeting, the sides discussed the possibilities of continuing the partnership in order to improve the legal basis regulating the activities of the institutions, in order to increase transparency and accountability in their work, as well as to adapt the national legislation in view of Bulgaria's ambitions to join Schengen and the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development.
