I see the difficulty in some areas in terms of data, but I think there are always ways in which to maybe get around that a bit by doing approximations. For example, if one has a sense of the number of women versus men employed in a sector, one can do some approximations that way. It would also be important for the government to actually see how much money it is putting into the gender equality goal. It's not just what Status of Women is being funded, which I think is $27 million, but to maybe introduce something like a gender equality marker, which is what the OECD has for tracking overseas development aid.
