"It has been concluded several times that the work to increase consistency and coherence deserves further attention. To follow-up on these discussions, it would be useful to explore more in depth the shared understanding of the issues at play and discuss whether these is a common and shared understanding of what is required to be able to consider the internal and external aspects to be ‘coherent’ and ‘consistent’. The importance of having a clear view on this, is that it enables identification of examples of incoherence and inconsistency and thereby the finding of effective solutions and approaches which take into account the interests of both internal and external realities."
