Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk is calling on the Federal Government to host a National Women’s Summit. 

The proposed summit would aim to address the ongoing economic and social inequality facing Australian women.

In a letter addressed to PM Scott Morrison, Palaszcuk says it is time for action to address the gender pay and superannuation gap, affordable childcare and sexual harassment and violence.

The Premier tweeted, "I’m proposing that National Cabinet consider hosting a National Women’s Summit to address the ongoing economic and social inequality facing Australian women."
