	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/02/2020 answer text <p>This Government is determined to make Britain the best place in the world to work. As announced in the Queens’ Speech, we will be bringing forward an Employment Rights Bill to deliver the greatest reform of workers’ rights in over 20 years. This will include measures to allow parents of children who have been in neonatal care for a prolonged stay to take additional paid leave (subject to qualifying criteria).</p><p> </p><p>This will take forward the proposals which the Government consulted on from July to October last year. The consultation outlined our estimates of the cost of this policy to business and to the Exchequer. This covered a range of options for how many weeks leave and pay the entitlement would cover, as well as the impact of a qualifying ‘minimum stay’ in neonatal care. The consultation document is available at <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/good-work-plan-proposals-to-support-families" target="_blank"><em>https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/good-work-plan-proposals-to-support-families</em></a> with provisional costings on p44. The Government will publish a full impact assessment when the Bill is introduced in Parliament.</p><p> </p><p>We look forward to setting out our plans soon with the publication of the Government Response.</p> answering member constituency Rochester and Strood answering member printed Kelly Tolhurst grouped question UIN 12873 12913 12914 question first answered 10/02/2020 17:50:00 answering member 4487 label Biography information for Kelly Tolhurst
