Thank you, Madam Chair.
My question is for Ms. Benzvy Miller.
In 2005, the OECD conducted a study on the labour force participation of women. That study found that public assistance to help with child care tended to increase the participation of women. I assume that this is still the case.
I have friends who are young female entrepreneurs who are highly educated and have started small businesses. They have told me that they find it really difficult to achieve a good work-life balance. The same problem has been noted among young women who want to enter politics.
I would like to know if the Department of Industry has introduced any measures to help women entrepreneurs with child care. Is there a national strategy in that area?
