The very short answer I could give you, Madam Minna, is that it's like cutting off your nose to spite your face. Seriously, how will the government go about addressing the issues of women, including women with disabilities, if they're not properly informed by accurate information based on all the issues that we face? Some of those issues we don't even know yet. That's a really short and sweet answer.
