Thank you for your question. I would just like to point out, first of all, that there were no budget cuts; rather, there has been a new allocation of funding for Status of Women Canada's programming. As I explained in my introductory remarks, this has meant that we received more project applications on the second call for proposals that was launched in the fall. It is a sign that staff were able to provide the assistance that groups needed in order to apply for funding to carry out their different projects.
In terms of our international commitments—and Ms. Beckton will be able to add to my comments—four policy analysts have been seconded from the Policy Branch to provide support at international women's forums at the United Nations, the Organization of American States, the Commonwealth and APEC, to ensure better integration of international and domestic policy.
Ms. Beckton may want to add something more.
