Women on boards

Welcome to the Women on Boards section where you will find information about serving on state sector boards and committees and about the Ministry of Women’s Affairs’ Nominations Service.

The Nominations Service is regularly consulted on appointments to over 400 state sector boards and committees.

The Service puts forward the names of women with relevant skills and experience for positions on state sector boards. Women who want to be considered for appointment to state sector boards and committees may apply to the Ministry to register with its Nominations Service and go onto its nominations database.

Note, however, that the appointments process is highly competitive and the Ministry of Women’s Affairs is only one source of advice for the appointing agencies.
