France to give women equal access to politics 

March 31, 2000  

PARIS, Mar 31 : France's National Assembly late Thursday voted overwhelmingly to give men and women equal access to political office, in what the minister for women said was a historic move. 

 

Under the bill , passed on second reading , there must be equal numbers of women and men candidates for elections and lists of candidates must alternate between women and men .

 

Nicole Perry, secretary of state for women's rights said: This is an important stage in the fight for equality which will deeply transform our political life. I am convinced that this text will go down in the history of women and their march toward equality."
