text: (Mrs. Lehr, Federal Republic of Germany) 63. The Ministry had a separate budget item for projects relating to women's policy. The appropriation in question had risen from 3.2 million deutsche mark in 1985 to over OM 15 million in 1990. That appropriation was also used for promoting women's associations and groups, for financing studies and models in the area of research on women, and for carrying out public relations activities. 64. However, in and of itself the figure of DM 15 million revealed very little, since projects relating to women were also financed from many other sources, such as the Ministry's general research budget or from funds for fighting the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), cancer, or drug abuse. Women also benefited from funds allocated for the implementation of policy on the elderly and the aged. The same applied where the other federal ministries were concerned. In addition, many billions of deutsche mark were allocated for the implementation of family policy, such as payment of the child-raising allowance, which had existed since 1986. The situation was the same at the level of the Lander and the municipalities, where there were special budget items for the financing of women's policy, as well as other items under which the funds in question also partly benefited women. 65. It could not be said that only women were employed in the machinery at the federal level and the level of the Lander for the purpose of achieving equal rights for women. In the women's department of the Ministry for Youth, Family Affairs, Women and Health (Ministry for Women), approximately 75 per cent of the posts were occupied by women and approximately 25 per cent by men. The Ministry considered it extremely important that men and women should work together in the endeavour to achieve equality.
