These are important roles in our society - could you or your family live without this support?
I recognise that men who do this kind of work are also underpaid. What Cr Jensen is suggesting is the recognition of the contribution women make in our community, will only occur when people take an action, putting some real goals around implementation.
Here is a clear example. About 25 years ago the Australian Labor Party did just that, by introducing targets for women in the party,and over time they have more or less achieved equality of representation. Look at the Qld Parliament! Whereas the LNP/Liberal Party continually struggle with female representation in their ranks, because they have never done anything to change their boys club.

The developer of a controversial motorsport park at Bella Creek is pushing back at tight restrictions enforced by Gympie Regional Council on the project when it was approved late last year Scott Canty s decade-long fight to have the park approved ended last October when the park was given a green light provided 25 conditions were met. Now Mr Canty is asking for some of these to be altered or deleted entirely. Points of contention include conditions placed around the serving of food on the site, the construction of a 6m wide gravel track inside the park, the need for a dedicated parking area, and on the limited number of riders allowed at the park s first few events, a staff report to be tabled at Wednesday s council meeting says.
