Thank you. I will be splitting my time with Sean Fraser.

First of all, I was looking at the supplementary estimates (B). They indicate that we're going to transfer $50,000 to the Department of Industry, also known as Innovation, Science and Economic Development, to support networking opportunities for women entrepreneurs.

Is there a specific program or is it just a general pot of money? I'm looking for some guidance on what this is going to be directed towards and whether there is an actual program in place that the funds are going to go to.

See context to find out what was said next.
