"Mr President, the Treaty of Amsterdam states that one of the missions of the European Community is to support equal rights for men and women through the implementation of common policies and funding as defined in Articles 3 and 4. The Treaty attaches fundamental significance to gender equality, stating that the spread of this principle is as important as developing a competitive economy. We now have the opportunity to move forward and to regulate a range of existing legislation, such as the Equal Pay Directive, the Directive on the implementation of the principle of equal treatment for men and women in occupational security schemes and the Directive on the implementation of the principle of equal treatment for men and women as regards access to employment, vocational training and promotion, and working conditions. It has also finally been possible to reach a compromise on a regulation that would allow men as well as women to be able to exercise their parental duties more effectively. For this reason I support the adoption of this compromise solution, particularly as it is the Day of the Child in Poland today, and this is the present that our children most deserve."@en1
