Sometimes it is the case that emails with inquiries seem to disappear into nirvana. This is what happened with the research on the article recently published in STADTTEIL-KURIER on the equal representation of advisory boards. Therefore, the statement of the SPD parliamentary group from the advisory councils in the middle and eastern suburbs follows here once again.
Holger Ilgner (center advisory board) states: “The idea behind the parity law is absolutely correct. Half of the population are women. It is hard to see why there are still a large number of men in parliaments ”. A parity law must of course be constitutional and take sufficient account of the will of the electorate. Therefore it is good that the Bremen citizenship clarifies this with an expert opinion. And then there must be a parity regulation at the advisory board level. “Yes, it has become more difficult to win people over to work on the advisory board. But that is not related to gender, but to the fact that the time and content requirements for this responsible and sometimes thankless task have increased, ”he admits.

The SPD has long been running appropriate mentoring programs for women in Bremen and provides for quoting the lists using the zip fastener method. Anke Kozlowski, Advisory Councilor for Eastern Suburbs and SPD parliamentary group spokeswoman, also points out all of this. She emphasizes: “The SPD is committed to the rights of women in the federal, state and local levels”. Both are of the opinion: A parity law would be a target-oriented obligation for all parties. And Anke Kozlowski added: The discussion about the amendments to the Advisory Council Act could be used.

Kozlowski’s and Ilgner’s joint conclusion: “In order to really make politics for everyone, it is important that certain realities of life are known from personal experience. In this way, the work in advisory boards would certainly also be qualitatively strengthened ”.
