This is the bill from the gov't to extend stat mat pay to 9 months (instead of 6) and let fathers have more time off. Meant to come in to effect in April 2007. Sccording to the bill it should have been through the commons and lords by now, but i have heard nothing about it. Does anyone know anything??? Thinking of child number 2 and if this is true will wait a couple of months so born after April!!
