"I and my British Conservative colleagues have abstained on the resolution concerning the 4th World Conference on Women because we do not believe that it deals with the most vital issues appropriately or in a truly practical way. The over-prescriptive references to 'gender mainstreaming', 'gender-based budgeting' and the call for rigid enforcement of quota systems are examples of this. The Conservative Party leads the way in championing respect and rights for women. Human trafficking, prostitution and genital mutilation are just some of the horrors facing girls and women in developing countries. But they cannot be dealt with only through financial aid, though aid is clearly needed; nor can they be dealt with by legislation, although legislation can of course help in appropriate cases. Womens' freedom will only be guaranteed if there is a proper programme of education extending to both sexes and vigorously pursued."@en1
