"Question No 62 by Maj Britt Theorin (): I gather that the Commission is launching a campaign next year on the principle of equal treatment in respect of pay, which I welcome as it is the Commission’s task to monitor the implementation of the equal pay directive. In spite of the fact that the Directive has been in force since 1975, its results have been conspicuous by their absence. Pay differentials are still at their 1980 levels – in the EU, men working full time earns on average 27% more than women working full time. In some countries the difference is as much as 30%. It is important to clarify the background to the Member States’ difficulties in combatting pay discrimination and the extent to which a review of the Directive is necessary. Is the Commission prepared to look into how the Directive and the case law of the Court of Justice have been applied in the Member States, and whether it is necessary to update the Directive?"@en1
