French parliamentary commission reviews ODA budget for 2012

November 7th, 2011

On 7 November, the ODA budget bill was reviewed by French MPs, in a session that was also attended by the Ministry of Cooperation, Henri de Raincourt.

The discussions tackled the topic of Family Planning on several occasions. Two MPs – Danielle Bousquet and Philippe Tourtelier – in particular insisted on the fact that gender is a key approach to make substantial progress on Reproductive Health and Family Planning issues. The category of young adolescent girls, in this perspective, is an essential one to take into account.

The full transcription of the debate can be found here.
