10. 余留机制酌情将性别平等视角纳入其业务活动、应交付产出和成果。证人支助和保护股的证人管理业务采用了题为“关于向受害者和证人提供支助和保护服务的程序指示”的准则中规定的敏感对待性别问题和性别意识正确的办法，这些办法继续指导该股工作。该股的人员配置将继续保持性别均衡，这对该股保护受害者和证人的主要业务活动至关重要，因为受害者和证人作为这项服务的对象，在许多情况下对提供保护服务的工作人员的性别归属很敏感。检察官办公室也将继续在其人员配置中保持性别平衡，目的包括确保进行对性暴力和性别暴力犯罪的调查时，对此类罪行的受害者保持必要的性别问题敏感度。调查是该办公室主要业务活动的一部分，而将性别平等视角纳入调查活动预计将有助于取得平衡的结果。此外，余留机制确保所有执行局、委员会和审查机构都实现均等的性别比例，以便将性别平等视角纳入所有审议和决定。
10. The Mechanism integrates a gender perspective in its operational activities, deliverables and results, as appropriate. The Witness Support and Protection Unit’s witness management operations incorporate gender-sensitive and gender-appropriate approaches, as set out in the guidelines entitled “Practice direction on the provision of support and protection services to victims and witnesses”, which continue to guide its work. The Unit will continue to maintain a gender-balanced representation in its staffing, which is crucial to its main operational activity of protection of victims and witnesses, who, as beneficiaries of this service, are in many contexts sensitive to the gender denomination of staff providing the protection services. The Office of the Prosecutor will also continue to maintain a gender-balanced representation in its staffing to ensure, for example, that investigations into sexual and gender-based violence crimes are conducted with the necessary sensitivity to victims of such crimes. Investigations are part of the main operational activities of the Office and the incorporation of a gender perspective in those activities is expected to support balanced results. Furthermore, the Mechanism ensures that all boards, committees and review bodies have equal gender representation to allow for the inclusion of gender perspectives in all deliberations and decisions.
