The Deputy may wish to note that in 2013 the Health Service Executive has allocated €20,560 to the National Women's Council of Ireland to help develop a Gender Mainstreaming Policy and to deliver a specified work programme to promote women's health. I have no remit in relation to any other activity undertaken by this organisation.
