§ 803. Gender-specific questions on grant applications. In order to
obtain reliable and comprehensive data on the health needs of women as
well as to ensure that women's health needs are served, in developing
grant applications and consistent with the objectives and nature of the
studies and research project, the department of health shall include
gender-specific questions to determine whether the research and studies
will impact primarily men or women and whether there are significant
differences between the sexes in the outcome of the research or studies.

For purposes of this section, studies and research shall mean any
studies or research for which the department of health provides funds.
It shall not apply to any grant for which there are contrary indications
in federal regulations.
