".
Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the complexity of the report under examination today was already apparent during work in the Committee on Women’s Rights and Gender Equality, where a risible majority of three votes and a wholesale absence of MEPs allowed the text to be adopted.
I believe that there has been effective legislation on the protection of women since 1975. Instead of striving to come up with new directives, I therefore believe we should be ensuring that the existing laws are applied in full by the governments.
It is for this reason that, even though I have no wish to vote against the report, which certainly has some positive aspects, I prefer to disassociate myself from other aspects to emphasise my disapproval of certain parts, particularly those concerning abortion over which we Catholics are naturally indisposed to compromise."@en1
