Women’s Opportunities Statement
A Women’s Opportunities Statement was published alongside the Budget 2022, setting out the NSW Government’s plans to make New South Wales the best place in Australia for women to live, work and raise a family. It draws on the findings of the Women’s Economic Opportunities Review (the Review), which was established by the NSW Government in February 2022 to consider how to improve women’s economic security through increased economic participation over the next five to 10 years.
