Women and work – call for evidence

The inquiry so far

We gathered information and promoted awareness of the issue by—

• holding a round-table session during Trade Union Week (February 2012);
• leading the Parliament in a debate on Women and Work (June 2012);
• attending and following the Scottish Government’s summit on women and employment (September 2012); and
• scrutinising the Draft Budget 2013-14 with a gender perspective (October/November 2012).
