Answer

A first draft of the new Strategy, in the form of a discussion document, has been considered by the Gender Advisory Panel, and at its next meeting the Panel will further consider the document.

The current Strategy will remain in place until the new Strategy is finalised. It will require full public consultation, consideration by the OFMDFM Committee and Executive approval.
