During the period mentioned in the Deputy’s question I have engaged with the National Women’s Council of Ireland (NWCI) on six occasions including in the context of the annual National Economic Dialogue and Pre-Budget meetings with the Community and Voluntary Pillar of which the NWCI is a member organisation. Officials also attended these engagements. Separately, my Department and the NWCI both participate in the National Strategy for Women and Girls Inter-Departmental Strategy Committee and Equality Budgeting Expert Advisory Group. These groups meet on a regular basis, with a total of eighteen meetings held since 1 January 2019.
