<p>The Government's Women and the Economy action plan sets out a clear programme of
work to maximise women's contribution to economic growth and address the gender pay
gap. I have oversight of this, as well as being the minister responsible for key elements
of it, such as extending flexible working, introducing shared parental leave, and
increasing the number of women on company boards. I regularly meet with ministerial
colleagues and others to discuss these issues, and the Ministers for Women gave a
joint presentation to Cabinet in April on these issues.</p>
