Abstract
At this point, it is useful to again emphasise that the OMC inclusion was quasi exclusively implemented by administrative staff and by NGO representatives, with politicians being the big absentees. Therefore, the latter do not figure amongst the interviewees. The interviewees, in turn, were often not aware of implementation details. The consequence is that many of the interviewees were not well or not at all informed about all the aspects of the OMC inclusion, e.g. what is happening in the home country, the EU-level or even in even in other member states. This is why the evaluation of the OMC inclusion by actors necessarily draws upon those aspects that they are knowledgeable about.
