"Mr President, the Committee on the Internal Market has also had this matter referred to it for our opinion and had wanted to make a contribution to this consultation on the definition of a more responsible corporate governance, to promote sustainable development of the internal market, in the service of the real economy. We were therefore clearly in favour of the definition of some priorities, and some recommendations and I have singled out three in particular. The first is a strong recommendation from the Committee on the Internal Market relating to professional and social diversity in company management boards. This concern can be found in the Bodu report, which points out that management boards should include independent individuals with a mix of skills, experiences and backgrounds. We insist, and we made this point strongly at the International Cooperation (INCO) conference, on the diversity of professional and personal backgrounds. Another priority for our Committee: that there should be balanced European proposals as regards the release of information to shareholders in annual reports. We stress the crucial need for transparency. Our final recommendation concerns, naturally, the principles of parity and equal treatment. We welcome the fact that, thanks to the discussion on this report, genuine progress can be made in female representation with regard to the introduction of quotas."@en1
