All government agencies are required to prepare gender impact assessments for NPPs. This recognises the important role the NSW Government plays in ensuring the needs of all genders are understood and addressed in the development of public policy.
Gender impact assessments support the NSW Government to make better-informed and equitable decisions when designing policy and allocating resources to meet the needs of the people it serves. Gender impact assessments can also improve the design of new policies to ensure the needs of different cohorts are not inadvertently overlooked.
