Parental Leave
Dail Éireann — 2020-12-03
============================================================

Kathleen Funchion (SF), Carlow-Kilkenny

I am taking this on behalf of my colleague, Deputy Louise O'Reilly. Why is the extension to maternity leave not being introduced until April 2021 as opposed to an immediate introduction after the budget or in January 2021?
