"This month marked the second anniversary of the Rana Plaza building collapse in Bangladesh, in which more than 1 100 workers died in one of the most fatal industrial accidents of our time.
As a result of the Rana Plaza disaster, a number of initiatives were taken on an international level to improve the situation in the ready-made garment sector. This sector employs 4 million people, mostly female workers in Bangladesh. One of these initiatives was the Sustainability Compact, which was signed in July 2013.
The Rana Plaza building collapse was followed by a public outcry which exposed a number of violations of labour law. It was for these reasons that I voted in favour of the resolution."@en1
