Stranke menijo, da je socialni dialog ključen demokratičen mehanizem za usklajevanje interesov, kar bi preprečilo enostranske odločitve in izključevanje. Predlog ne zmanjšuje pristojnosti državnega zbora ali vlade, ampak zagotavlja, da je dialog sestavni del odločanja, ne pa odvisen od dobre volje oblasti.
