"Questions 33 and 34 of Questions to the Commission were intended for Mr Nielson. Mr Nielson cannot be present today since he is in South Africa. I must tell you that the Vice-President of the Commission, Mrs Loyola de Palacio, has sent me a kind letter giving me all sorts of explanations and informing me that Mr Patten will reply to the questions. Question No 33 by Maj Britt Theorin (): In 1995 the Council drew up guidelines for integrating the equal opportunities dimension ('mainstreaming') into the full range of EU aid policy. The guidelines call for all staff working in the development sector to receive continuous training in 'gender mainstreaming' but in recent years only around 50 people have been trained and there is still no compulsory training in the subject within the Directorate-General for Development. 'Mainstreaming' means taking account of equality between women and men as an integral part of all forms of development policy, strategy and measures. To achieve that, the Council's guidelines must be implemented in their entirety. Current staff must receive compulsory training in equal opportunities and 1-2 days' training in such issues should form an essential part of the Directorate-General for Development's introductory courses for new staff. Is the Commission prepared to take such measures?"@en1
