WELCOME to Scotland on Sunday's online feature, Question of the Week.
Each week we ask the readers of scotlandonsunday.com for their views on a burning issue from the past seven days. The best responses may be reproduced on the Online Forum page in Sunday's print edition of the newspaper on September 7th.

If you wish to appear in Scotland on Sunday, then, along with your response, please leave a first name and surname, as well as your location - eg Tom Smith, Edinburgh. We welcome all comments.

The question this week is...

As a new report finds that Scotland's most talented women face a 'concrete ceiling' in the workplace, is it time the law was changed to ensure more women reach the top in business and government?

You can make laws to discourage discrimination against employing women or paying us the same as men earn, but otherwise – unless you wish to be tokenist or impose quotas – you can only encourage us to reach the top. But I hope that in the process women’s vital role in nurturing and educating the next generation is not further undervalued.

No... only the best should rise to the top, regardless of sex, skin colour etc. The main reason so few women reach the top of their industries is that many take time off to have children.
