I don't think it's a productive tool for women in general, but I will say the specific recommendation would be to exempt women who are making gender-based persecution claims. At the very least there should be a more accountable process for the minister in designating third countries and a process by which the record on domestic violence and the laws on domestic violence, on sexual violence, on violence against women are examined to consider as to whether they actually keep women safe. That should be a key component of whether a country is designated on the DCO list.
