lpv:translated text	"It is useful to focus on working conditions in the service sector, but why focus only on conditions for women? Most of the members of the committee responsible have an annoying tendency to group women’s problems in with those of the disabled, the elderly, minorities and those who are different. Women are citizens in their own right. We have to stop this counterproductive categorisation. I did not vote for this report because I refuse to associate myself with this hotchpotch of pointless affirmations and demands that contradict reality and are actually damaging to women. As I do not have much space, I will give just one example: the claim that in the public sector, women are more at risk of losing their job is false. Women and men who work in the public sector are better paid and better protected than those who work in the private sector. The most absurd of all the demands appears in Article 43. The reform of the directive on maternity protection is blocked in the Council because the text adopted here with a whole string of exaggerated, heterogeneous demands does not lend itself to any serious discussion. The existing directive could have been improved two years ago if we had accepted the reasonable proposals of the Commission instead of trying to go one better and giving in to populism."@en1
