Gender Equality Budget Statements

Gender responsive budgeting ensures gender equality considerations are embedded into policy design and government decision-making. Gender responsive budgeting comprises several different elements, including gender budget statements and gender impact assessments. In New South Wales, the Gender Equality Budget Statement is published as part of the State Budget and outlines the impact of the annual budget on gender equality. This includes examining the key issues relating to gender inequality across NSW and highlighting key budget measures that seek to address these challenges.
