answer text <p>The Ireland/Northern Ireland Protocol (‘the Protocol’) is a unique solution to complex challenges. To work, it must be given effect in a pragmatic, practical and proportionate way. That is how we ensure it can meet its core purposes: to uphold the Belfast/Good Friday Agreement in all its dimensions, safeguard Northern Ireland’s integral place in the United Kingdom, and prevent a hard border on the island of Ireland.</p><p> </p><p>This has been the basis on which the UK Government has continued to give effect to its obligations under the Protocol, conscious of the need to minimise its impact on everyday lives in Northern Ireland - as the Protocol itself sets out.</p><p> </p><p>There have been difficulties in the operation of the Protocol, and we are working through the structures of the Withdrawal Agreement to seek to resolve these. <ins class="ministerial">The UK and EU were able to use the Ireland/Northern Ireland Specialised Committee on 26 March to take stock of outstanding issues. Lord Frost and Vice President Šefčovič, and their respective teams, remain in close contact as we move forward.</ins> Issues remain, but our aim is to find common sense, risk-based approaches that enable us to agree a pragmatic way forward that substantially eases the burdens on Northern Ireland.</p>

answer text <p>Shared Parental Leave (SPL) and Pay was introduced in December 2014 for the parents of children due or adopted from 5 April 2015. The scheme enables eligible working parents to share up to 50 weeks of leave and up to 37 weeks of pay in the first year, where the mother does not intend to use her full maternity entitlements.</p><p>Information provided by employers to HMRC in respect of claims for Statutory Shared Parental Pay (ShPP) indicates that 4,100 individuals were in receipt of ShPP in Quarter 3 of 2020-21, and 3,300 individuals were in receipt of ShPP in Quarter 4 <ins class="ministerial">(January and February only)</ins> of 2020-21.</p><p>Please note that HMRC does not hold information which calculates the total duration of ShPP received by individual claimants. However, the following table sets out the number of individuals in receipt of ShPP in 2019-20 by the number of months in the year that they made a claim:</p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>Number of months claimed in 2019-20 (see note 4)</p></td><td><p>Number of claimants</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>1</p></td><td><p>4,400</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2</p></td><td><p>3,100</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>3</p></td><td><p>2,300</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>4</p></td><td><p>1,500</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>5</p></td><td><p>800</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>6</p></td><td><p>500</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>7</p></td><td><p>300</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>8</p></td><td><p>100</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>9</p></td><td><p>100</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p><em>Please note:</em></p><ol><li><em>The data collected uses HMRC Real Time Information (RTI) system and was extracted in May 2021. RTI is subject to revision or updates, and so there may be small fluctuations in figures reported, and these figures should not be considered “final”.</em></li><li><em>Figures have been rounded to the nearest hundred.</em></li><li><em>The number of individuals in receipt of ShPP per quarter are based on the total number of individuals in that quarter irrespective of when the payment first started. Quarterly figures should not be added together to make a yearly count of individuals in receipt of ShPP due to double counting claimants from quarter to quarter.</em></li><li><em>“Number of months claimed” counts each month the same individual was in receipt of ShPP in a given tax year (2019-20). This should not be interpreted as the total duration of pay received. Where individuals are in receipt of pay that spans two financial years HMRC data can only count the period within a single year and where individuals have received pay spanning months, however briefly, will be recorded as two months.</em></li><li><em>This data represents individuals in receipt of Shared Parental Pay only, so those who take unpaid Shared Parental Leave are not included.</em></li></ol>
