I have two questions related to your ministry coming out of the November 18 United Nations Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women. I'll note that in paragraph 24 they say:
The Committee notes with appreciation that the Ministry of Status of Women is currently working with other Ministries to develop a federal strategy against gender-based violence.... However, the Committee is concerned about: ...The lack of a national action plan, bearing in mind that the strategy will only apply at the federal level;
That's one, and the second is:
The lack of shelters, support services and other protective measures for women victims of gender-based violence, which reportedly prevents them from leaving their violent partners....
Does your ministry have a response yet to those two suggestions or criticisms of the work that's been happening over the past year? Are there active staff proposals that would help reassure the United Nations in time for their next report that these have been achieved?
