"Article 8 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union states that ‘in all its activities, the Union shall aim to eliminate inequalities, and to promote equality, between men and women’. Gender mainstreaming is thus one of the EU’s principles, and there should be no type of discrimination between men and women in the course of the Union’s activities. This report is intended to show that the European Parliament should do more to integrate a gender perspective, and that all its policies should reflect the needs, aspirations and experiences of all members of society. The Committee on Women’s Rights and Gender Equality is adopting numerous initiatives to implement and develop a gender perspective, particularly by the process of taking a gender perspective into account in amendments, and by appointing a Member responsible for the issue on every committee. In this way, the way in which gender is taken into account in Parliament’s law-making process can be monitored."@en1
