Committee on Budgetary Oversight

Equality Budgeting: Discussion with the National Women's Council of Ireland

2:00 pm

Ms Niamh Allen:

We are at a critical juncture at the moment. We have been meeting the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform and we have been through the negotiating process around the new national strategy for women and girls. There is an appetite and a willingness to take this work on in a genuine and meaningful way across Departments, in particular, the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform. We feel that our model will contribute greatly to the progress of that work and we want to build on the momentum.
