On page 92 of the programme for Government there is a commitment to ensure that Men's Sheds and Women's Sheds are properly resourced and that the network of teen sheds is established. Last week we saw an allocation of money to Men's Sheds which was vastly disproportionate to that given to Women's Sheds. While I understand there are more Men's Sheds, we need to invest more in the establishment of new Women's Sheds. What is the Government doing to encourage more Women's Sheds? Also, what progress is being made on teen sheds, which seem to be getting very little attention?
