"Madam President, this report is supposed to be about equality between men and women in the European Union. I regret that once again, the Committee on Women’s Rights and Gender Equality has strayed completely from the topic. This report is a missed opportunity to discuss gender equality and the persistent and gaping gender pay gap, still 17.5% according to paragraph 17, and yet there is only one small paragraph consisting of four-and-a-half lines dealing with this. Instead, the focus of this report was diverted to abortion, reproductive rights and the definition of the family, all of which are subsidiarity matters. I voted against paragraph 47, reproductive rights and access to abortion; paragraph 58, reproductive and health services; paragraph 61, access to abortion for victims of rape in armed conflict. Mr Messerschmidt, Mr Kasoulides, Mr Tannock have all emphasised that the vast majority of the matters being dealt with are matters of subsidiarity. I voted against the report in total."@en1
