lpv:spoken text	"I voted in favour of this report which focuses on the participation of women in decision-making processes, economic participation of women, violence against women, women’s role in peaceful resolution of conflicts and examples of best practices and EU support in the context of the European Neighbourhood Policy. It considers that women still face significant barriers to participation in Eastern Partnership States (16% of elected MPs on average) and calls for them to take concrete steps to overcome the many barriers facing women in all areas of society including politics, care and education. Despite their higher levels of education in all Eastern Partnership countries, women are significantly and noticeably absent from the structures of power and remain active predominantly in low-paying sectors because of legal and structural barriers. Women also suffer from a gender pay gap that can be as wide as 50% in some sectors. For highlighting these concerns, I voted in favour of the report."@en1
