Description:
The purpose of the Inter-Departmental Group and the timeframe for conclusion of its work were set out in its terms of reference, as follows: The Inter-Departmental Group will: - identify best practices (whether already in use in Departments or not) aimed at accelerating progress towards the target of 40% representation of each gender on all State boards, considering measures mentioned in Action 4.7 of the National Strategy for Women and Girls such as engagement with external nominating bodies and awareness raising among eligible groups of women; - consider how such practices could be mainstreamed across Government Departments and public bodies; - recommend actions in respect of those practices that could be taken by Government Departments and public bodies; and - propose an implementation plan to give effect to its recommendations. The Inter-Departmental Group will conclude its work and report with its conclusions to Minister Flanagan and Minister of State Stanton by end March 2019.Corporate name:
