HMRC cannot begin delivery until the Neonatal Care (Leave and Pay) Bill has Royal Assent.

HMRC also need to draw up and publish requirements for external developers, who will need to build Neonatal Leave and Pay into their payroll software products so that employers can administer Neonatal Leave and Pay through payroll.
