From February to May of 1999 1,500 social agents from Southern Basque Country (the Spanish state) were invited to participate in the agreement, and a few months later the same things were done with 600 agents from Northern Basque Country (in the French state). In each case we are talking about non-public entities (including private companies with public capital) that are provincial or larger since the involvement process of local agents was left for the second phase for reasons of organizational and communicational convenience. Although one third affirmative responses were forecasted, finally 899 agents responded affirmatively, 687 in the South and 212 in the North. The complete list of organizations that signed the Agreement can be seen on Kontseilua’s web page; as the list below shows, they covered all areas of society:
