Thank you, Madam Chair.
Several of the witnesses in our past meetings drew our attention to the fact that a lot of the supports aren't available to them due to language, their location or their posting. One woman was on a ship, where there are limited resources and personnel, of course, but some of the witnesses also specifically spoke about the need for adequate child care and the huge barrier they face because it isn't provided to military personnel.
Could you both address what you're actively doing to ensure that women in the armed forces equally can serve by being provided those services they need, and child care specifically?
