We continue to build upon our successes through influencing policy and, when necessary, by taking cases to the courts.
We have eleven objectives which focus our efforts for maximum effect as well as ensuring our limited resources are used efficiently.
All laws to be gender neutral unless relating to pregnancy and childbirth.

Equal provisions for men and women in all statutory and public policies and benefits.
Substantially equal public funding for medical research into and treatment of male and female specific diseases.
Equal status for separated parents and more rigorous enforcement of child contact and of maintenance orders.
Effective Government policies to improve the academic underachievement of boys and to encourage a more even balance between men and women in teaching, especially in primary school.
Funding for research into the reasons for and means of reducing the persistent difference in life expectancy between men and women.
