This is the best summary I could come up with:
Senator Jane Hume, who co-authored the review, launched the Dame Margaret Guilfoyle Network at Parliament House on Wednesday night.
The review by Senator Hume and political strategist Brian Loughnane recommended the establishment of the network, to bring more women into the Liberal Party branches and parliament.
"It provides Liberal-minded women a place where they can both contribute to the political debate and benefit from association with others who are involved directly and indirectly," the senator said in a statement.
The ABC also asked if another one of the election loss review recommendations, an update to the federal executive by June 2023 and every six months after about hitting those 50 per cent female targets, had been implemented.
Veteran affairs advocate and domestic violence survivor Gwen Cherne lost preselection to ex-McKinsey consultant Simon Kennedy.
Senator Hume has also engaged former California Republican Party chairman and ex-spokesman for Ted Cruz, Ron Nehring, to assist with the network.
