9.7. Reducing health inequalities (A7-0032/2011, Edite Estrela) (vote)

– Before the vote:

  Margrete Auken (Verts/ALE). – (DA) Madam President, I would like to address the Danes in particular. In the Danish translation, the word ‘equitable’ has been translated as ‘ligelig’. This is not a good translation because people will then think that it means ‘uniform’. Thus, in the final report, the word ‘retfærdig’, meaning ‘equitable’, will be used. It has a different meaning, and I will, of course, recommend that all of our colleagues in the Danish delegation – and perhaps the Swedes have the same problem – vote in favour of the word being corrected in the report.
