"I am totally opposed to this report. Over the last year, three scientific studies have been published by the University of Konstanz, the University of Michigan and the University of Cologne which confirm that: 1. Companies with diversity in top positions do not perform better. 2. The quota imposed in Norway, for example, has caused significant damage to the companies affected. 3. A quota in both the private and the public sector represents a breach of current legislation. Therefore, I have voted against the report. Quotas involve the risk that the principle of equal treatment will be suppressed, because in my opinion, any form of quota represents discrimination. In addition, quota regulations are counterproductive because they result in highly qualified women being branded as quota fillers. The decision to appoint a person to a position should be made only on the basis of their qualifications and not their gender."@en1
