"It is clear that we must recognise the need to implement more effectively the principle of equal treatment of men and women working as sole proprietors and the spouses who support them. Twenty-two years ago a corresponding directive was passed. The European Parliament and the Commission have consistently called for that directive to be reviewed, because time has taken its toll.
Today we have reached the point where we have passed amendments to the directive, and a new directive was passed that improves the situation of supporting spouses, whether that be in agriculture, handicrafts, commerce, small and medium-sized enterprises or freelance occupations. I welcomed this decision, and supported the report."@en1
