"Mr President, I welcome Glenys Kinnock’s report. It is a comprehensive, practical and indeed pragmatic approach to a very serious and horrific situation. I also welcome the Commissioner’s intention to develop a common development strategy and I would urge him to engage with national parliaments, as well as with others in the Member States. I am quite sure he will find a groundswell of support for his approach to this issue. The statistics for poverty and mortality are quite horrific. Every time this electronic clock in front of me ticks, a child dies needlessly. Every minute the clock ticks, three women die needlessly in pregnancy or childbirth. Yet there are people here who would have this Parliament decide against allowing those women to exercise their choice on their health, on the kind of contraception they might use, and whether or not they should choose abortion. I urge this Parliament to reject the amendments which seek to do that. This Parliament has no place dictating to women in the developing world as to how they should address their health needs."@en1
