International Day of the Girl Child provides us all with an opportunity to reflect on how we need to empower girls, in Australia and across the globe, so that they can reach their full potential. The government is improving the economic security of Australian women to give women greater choices and options in their lives by providing more support to encourage women and girls into STEM, by providing funding especially to improve women's financial literacy, and by helping to protect the low and inactive superannuation accounts of nearly two million Australian women. The minister for women will be bringing forward a women's economic security statement in spring this year to build on this work.

Question agreed to.
