Swedish term or phrase: jämställdhetsbokslut
Refers to a local council policy of gender equality, where they also use "jämställdhetsbokslut". It seems to refer to an annual report on the gender equality situation within the organisation. But I can't find an existing equivalent term in English

Thanks

You're absolutely right, Duncan, it should be annual report on gender equality

I confused jämställdhet with jämlikhet :-)

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thanks - I like the idea of annual report - but doesn't it have to be specifically gender? - I got some negative feedback once when referring to jämställdhet as simply equal opportunities

Asker: Ah, yes its one of those traps! Well at least you did it here - I did it throughout a translation once a long time ago and got a ticking off from the client! Many thanks
