"If we look at the state of equality between women and men in 2011, we see that the economic crisis has affected women more than men, further undermining their economic independence, which is often precarious. I therefore voted in favour of this report because it highlights the problem of the pay gap between men and women doing the same work and with the same skills, and suggests setting a European target to reduce the pay gap in each Member State by 10%. Moreover, since voluntary measures do not lead to convincing results, the use of quotas is required in order to see more women access positions of major responsibility within companies. I also support the proposals that would enable increased representation of women on the executive boards of companies, so that this representation reaches 30% by 2015 and 40% by 2020."@en1
