".
I voted in favour of the resolution as I believe that equal treatment of men and women is one of the objectives of the European Union and therefore one of the key principles of any policy response to the economic and financial crisis and the transition towards the post-crisis era; I believe it is fundamental that the Commission, the Council and the Member States adopt the necessary measures to include views on gender in all EU policies and that they proceed to review the existing legislation to be able to ensure equality between men and women and adopt positive discrimination measures whenever necessary. I agree with the request to the European institutions, the Member States and the local and regional authorities to take concrete measures, namely through legislation, that aim to encourage the balance between men and women in positions of responsibility in companies and in politics, including on the boards of directors, and in the institutions, administrations and local, regional, national and European public organisations, which must set an example. The resolution therefore encourages the fixing of binding goals with a view to guaranteeing equal representation of men and women."@en1
