"I am voting in favour of the introduction of quotas for women in management positions in companies, public bodies and political organisations. Quota regulations are never satisfactory. Voluntary changes would be a better solution in every case. However, during many years of political activity in this area, I have realised that the so-called ‘old boy’ networks can only be broken down by introducing quotas. It is true that these networks are not established in order to keep women out of management positions. Instead, they develop automatically in the course of people’s careers. However, their effect is precisely that. Women find it difficult to penetrate these circles. I am also in favour of legal authorisation for abortion. In this case, too, it would be better if abortions did not take place. However, the reality is somewhat different. Therefore, women must be guaranteed a certain level of legal certainty. If we were not to do this, the consequence would not necessarily be fewer abortions. Instead, women would go to third countries for abortions where there are no controls and, in some cases, not even proper medical standards."@en1
