Perhaps this will help to clarify. We have a set of questions that have been provided to analysts to use in order to help them review the Treasury Board submission when it comes in. Along the line of those questions, there's a specific set of them that deals with GBA.
So there's a set of questions around outcomes, goals, and objectives, questions such as these: Does the policy or program support the full participation and equality for women and men? Does it create barriers? Does the policy or program service discriminate against women or men in outcomes? Would this policy or program service alter the situation of women or men negatively or positively?
We also have a set of questions that they ask, and I can do this part in French.
As far as the analysis of possible outcomes and recommendations, the following questions are asked:
What are some possible unintended outcomes under the recommended option and, as the case may be, the other proposed options?
What are the underlying assumptions and values about gender roles implicit in the option being recommended?
Which gender aspects provide a solid rationale for the recommended option?
There are other questions as well on the program/service design and delivery:
Does the activity clearly define outputs/results related to the advancement of gender equality?
