lpv:translated text	"Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, has anyone in this Parliament actually ever written a report about the number of men in middle and top positions who are mediocre, low-achievers? Had there been such a report, it would have observed – as we already know from our real lives – that a great number of men who really are not effective and not particularly brilliant nevertheless occupy top positions. We would also have hit upon the idea that perhaps the factor of excellence in performance, which is supposed to be the sole criterion for top positions, is not, in fact, the only factor. There is a glass ceiling for women, also known as structural discrimination, and as long as that is the case, we will need this quota. It is very crude tool: all the quota does is to create formal equality, which is the prerequisite for bringing about real equality of rights and fairness between the sexes. It seems to me that we should not beat around the bush, we should give this our clear support and I am therefore nailing my colours to the mast in support of this quota."@en1
