lpv:translated text	"I voted in favour of the report because I consider that it expresses, in a clear manner, the need for constitutional, legislative and social change in Turkey in order to achieve full equality between men and women and improve the quality of life of women within the framework of a modern State. At the same time, it expresses the need to protect women from physical violence by opening more refuges for abused women, and the need to take action to limit discrimination against women of Kurdish origin and women who choose a different sexual orientation. Another positive point in the motion for a resolution is that it calls on the Turkish Government to support the presence of girls in all levels of education and, at the same time, notes the progress made on this particular issue. Finally, two important sectors in which the participation of women needs to be strengthened are the labour market and political life. The report rightly notes the limited number of women in work, often with minimal labour rights, and the relatively small percentage of women in political life, despite recent progress. To close, I would like to stress that this is a balanced report that introduces an appropriate framework for improving the standard of life of women in Turkey."@en1
