lpv:translated text	". I agree with the content of this report because, in my view, equality between men and women requires equality of access to the benefits of the Structural Funds. In practical terms, with regard to the gender perspective and even when it does not legislate, the European Parliament, specifically in its capacity as a privileged forum and as the body that represents the citizens, issues guidelines both for the citizens in general and the Member States, which are the targets of some measures proposed by the report. Parliament must, therefore, be able to translate and represent various points of view. This report provides a good opportunity to promote further steps to achieve greater equality of opportunity between men and women and – it should not be forgotten – also greater equality within the worlds of men and women themselves. Indeed, individuals’ freedom of choice cannot be ignored and it is important to correct inequalities where these different personal choices are concerned and to ensure that these choices are respected. What is particularly interesting is the report’s proposal to promote the reorganisation of working time for men and women and the need to encourage awareness of the equal distribution of tasks within the family. In this context, however, I think it is appropriate and crucial to protect and also deal appropriately with the high value of domestic and intra-family work. Unless we do so, we will be prolonging and deepening inequality."@en1
