The right to additional paternity leave and pay will be introduced from April 2011 (although some employees gain entitlement before that date). Following a third consultation period in late 2009, the Government has now published the final Regulations in draft. They are expected to come into force from 6 April 2010, providing up to a year for employers to prepare.
We published an article in this newsletter in September 2009 that covered the new entitlements in some detail. In a coming newsletter, when we have had time to check over the final Regulations, we will update that article and re-issue it in this newsletter.
For readers interested in studying the Regulations straight away, we have provided links to the six sets of documents below.
