President of the European Commission Romano Prodi launched an Internet debate with the public on a potential Constitution for Europe based on the working document "Penelope".
Prodi and the experts who are drawing up the document personally respond to comments and proposals from the public on issues such as democracy, justice, and monetary policy.
The debate as the Convention discussed the draft articles of the future Constitutional Treaty. The online discussion is part of the "Debate on the Future of the European Union", an initiative of the Nice Summit in December 2002.
The ideas discussed and exchanged in the debate will contribute to the preparation of the next intergovernmental conference in 2004.
