"Madam President, while I fully support access for women in politics and employment, I also always have doubts about quota solutions if this is in some sense an attempt to force achievement of the legitimate demand that all genders be treated equally. The history of our civilisation shows that wherever we attempt a kind of social engineering, we very often achieve the opposite effect to the one intended. This also explains why I voted against this principle. However, I did endorse this report, despite having initial doubts that it will take us in the direction of excessive regulation and of bureaucratic institutions interfering in business – and I think that nothing good comes of interference of this kind. I consider the report to be a good compromise and, accordingly, I endorsed it."@en1
