". The recognition of women’s rights as an integral and indivisible component of universal human rights requires the adoption of accompanying measures which will allow this recognition to be transposed into concrete actions. It also requires a subsequent evaluation of those measures, above all, so that they can be adapted in the event that they are not sufficiently effective. This is why the Smet-Gröner report, and the proposals contained in it, are so opportune and correct. I have therefore voted in favour of it. Of particular importance is the request for specific preventive measures and measures to promote women’s health and guarantee their right to genetic health, as long as this right is not understood to mean the right to abortion but rather the right to the protection of the health of the expectant mother and the unborn child. With regard to the promotion of equal opportunities in the context of policies on cooperation with development, I would like to point out that, in my view, efforts in this area should concentrate especially on guaranteeing girls’ access to primary education, which means at the same time ensuring that it is free. However, I regret the fact that the amendment that I presented on behalf of the PPE has not been accepted. The prevention of adolescent pregnancies demands, above all, that we educate the young in the values which stem from their essential sense of self-worth and teach them to enjoy their freedom in a responsible manner."@en1
