A stronger position for women and minorities in parliament, governance and political parties should be encouraged through affirmative action within the political parties themselves. Initiatives to encourage the representation of women in public and political life should also be considered and the Electoral Commission also introduce a pro-active gender policy to ensure women take up key positions.
