Endorsing a proposal made by the former Committee on Equal Opportunities for Women and Men at its meeting in Strasbourg on 15 April 2011, the Bureau decided to publish figures on the gender breakdown of Assembly positions and to produce an annual report on progress in achieving gender equality in the functioning of the Assembly.
In 2014, women continued to be underrepresented in all Assembly and Committee positions, even if there has been improvement in some areas.
As regards overall Assembly membership, in 2014 women represented 34% of the total, which is similar to the previous year. They were slightly better represented amongst Substitutes (35%) than amongst Representatives (32%).
In 2014, all national delegations complied with the requirement set out in Rule 6.2.a of the Assembly’s Rules of Procedure, according to which ‘(…) National delegations should include members of the under-represented sex at least in the same percentage as in their parliaments and, at a very minimum, one member of the under-represented sex appointed as representative’.
The main change in 2014 concerned the Assembly’s main leadership positions: for the second time in Assembly’s history a woman was elected President. However, the percentage of women as Vice-Presidents decreased from 29% in 2013 to 22% in 2014. Women’s representation in the Bureau also decreased (from 30% to 25%) while it remained the same in the Presidential Committee (14%).
As regards the committee chairmanships, the number of women as chairpersons remained the same: 50% in 2013 and in 2014. Another positive development is the increase of the overall percentage of women in committees’ bureaux which rose from 33% in 2013 to 37% in 2014.
As regards the composition of committees, women were slightly better represented as alternates (35%) as opposed to full members (32%). However, the proportion of women slightly decreased: in 2013 they represented 33% as opposed to 32% in 2014. Women rapporteurs for opinion whose opinion was presented in plenary session during the year increased from 17% in 2013 to 35% in 2014, whereas the percentage of women rapporteurs for report decreased from 32% in 2013 to 29% in 2014. The Committee of Legal Affairs and Human Rights was the only committee where, out of nine reports debated in plenary session, no woman was rapporteur. It should be recalled that, when appointing rapporteurs, committees should take into account gender amongst other criteria, in accordance with Rule 50 of the Rules of Procedure of the Assembly.
