Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade

National Action Plan on UN Security Council Resolution 1325: Discussion

3:30 pm

Ms Carol Ballantine:

In response to Deputy Maureen O'Sullivan's point, a number of examples are quoted in the monitoring report of work being carried out directly with women parliamentarians. For example, in Sierra Leone, Irish Aid funds support parliamentary parties to impose gender quotas and ensure gender quotas are met. That work is going on as well.
