"With regard to the report on a corporate governance framework for European companies, I voted against Amendment 1, which calls for an increase in the number of women on administrative boards by means of a system of flexible quotas. I voted in favour of Amendment 3, which calls on the Commission to present, as soon as possible, comprehensive, up-to-date data on female representation within all types of companies in the EU and on the compulsory and non-compulsory measures taken by the business sector, as well as those recently adopted by Member States with a view to increasing female representation. The report also calls on the Commission, if, following this exercise, the steps taken by Member States and companies are found to be inadequate, to propose legislation, including quotas, by 2012 to increase female representation in corporate management bodies to 30% by 2015 and to 40% by 2020, while taking account of Member States’ responsibilities and their specific economic, structural (especially relating to company size), legal and regional characteristics. I also voted in favour of Amendment 4 which made significant improvements to the report."@en1
