Looking at the commitments of the EU member countries in their development policy, the precept of coordination, complementary and coherence appear already in 1992 in the Maastricht Treaty. While coordination and complementary are being addressed as important technical issues within the debate of "Aid Effectiveness", coherence refers much more to the policy level, where different national interests compete with development policy. The importance of a coherent development policy has been recognised since 1992 in many papers and documents, but implementation is still being hampered by the dominance of national (economic) interests. In the last couple of years, a lot of research has been done on institutional approaches to help governments to achieve policy coherence in support of development.
