"Each year, International Women’s Day provides an opportunity to take stock of women’s rights and gender equality in the European Union. There have certainly been significant improvements, but it is clear that we have not yet fully achieved this equality, neither in reality nor in people’s minds. Equality, however, is a prerequisite for realising the EU’s objectives of growth, employment and social cohesion. I therefore voted in favour of this report, which stresses the need to target the consequences of the crisis for women and to remedy them. It also stresses the role of education and calls on the European Union to combat female poverty and all forms of violence towards women. I think that another fundamental point in this report can be found in paragraph 66, which affirms the right of women to easy access to contraception and abortion. Let us remember that in 11 countries of the Union, abortion is still not fully authorised."@en1
