In Sweden, for example, a regulation stipulates that a “committee of enquiry” must carry out gender impact analysis of a policy proposal with a potential effect on gender equality. The committee extensively examines the proposal and drafts a report that is submitted to Parliament ahead of its decision. Spain has passed legislation, the Act for Effective Equality between Women and Men, that requires gender impact analyses for regulations and plans of specific “economic, social, cultural and artistic relevance” that are submitted to the Council of Ministers.
