lpv:translated text	"I consider it extremely regrettable that the Council has not hitherto managed to take a position regarding the Pregnancy and Maternity Leave Directive (92/85/EEC). I understand that this is a complex matter, taking into consideration the financial crisis and the differences between Member States, but if negotiations commence between Parliament and the Council, it will be possible to achieve the required compromise. Europe’s demographic future is not encouraging, and having discussed this situation already in 2008 in this same hall, we passed a resolution calling for measures in connection with the duration and protection of pregnancy and maternity leave, convinced that a corresponding policy would be able to influence the birth curve, creating a financially and psychologically favourable environment for families. We have spoken a great deal about the equal opportunities and equal rights of men and women in the labour market, and it is clear that longer maternity leave and also paternity leave create better grounds for this."@en1
