"In adopting the report by Ms Pietikäinen today (by 508 votes to 124, with 49 abstentions), we have called on the Member States and the Commission to take legislative measures to establish parity between men and women, and we have asked the European institutions to extend it to all levels. The proportion of women involved in political decisions has not changed in recent years and, in some decision-making bodies, has even gone down. The report therefore calls on national governments, after the 2014 European elections, to simultaneously put forward a man and a woman as their candidates for the office of European Commissioner. We also believe that the role of the European Institute for Gender Equality should be strengthened. The result of the vote shows that Parliament has the political will to take active measures to increase parity, and that is something I am very happy about."@en1
