  A discussion of the key findings
  from the review and reactions to
  the results.

  Moderator:
  Huston Loke
  Director, Corporate Finance, OSC


 Topic 2: What Should the OSC do Next?  

 Should any changes be made to the
 existing disclosure requirements
 relating to women on boards and in
 executive officer positions?
 Is there additional information needed
 to make informed investment and
 voting decisions?
 Are we asking for any information that
 is not useful for decision-making?
 Is there a need for further regulatory
 action? For example, would setting
 guidelines regarding gender diversity-
 related governance practices be
 helpful?
 Where do we go from here?
