Parental Leave and Employment Protection Act 1987

Partner’s leave

18: Entitlement of other adoptive parent to partner's/paternity leave

You could also call this:

“Adoptive parent's right to take time off work (no longer applies)”

This part of the law used to talk about when an adoptive parent could take leave from work, similar to what a partner or father might take. However, this section no longer applies because it was removed from the law on 1 April 2016. This means that the rules about leave for adoptive parents might have changed or been moved to a different part of the law.
