"I voted in favour of this report, which was approved in this House on the day when we celebrate the centenary of the day dedicated to women. According to recent data, even today, 17% of European women still live in poverty and, to make matters worse, they suffer disadvantages in the labour market and in social protection. At the same time, women’s contribution to the development of the family, society and the economy are regularly undervalued and underpaid. According to the annual report of the Commission, women are more exposed to the risk of poverty and, as a result, of social exclusion, particularly older women, 22% of whom were at risk of poverty in 2008, compared with 16% of elderly men and 35% of single parents and other categories of women such as those with disabilities or from ethnic minorities. In particular, I agree with the request made by the rapporteur, Mrs Nedelcheva, for a work-life balance or for further measures to be taken to support single mothers."@en1
