Parental Leave and Employment Protection Act 1987

Extended leave

24: Entitlement of adoptive parent to extended leave

You could also call this:

“Adoptive parents' right to extra time off work has changed”

You should know that this part of the law about adoptive parents getting extended leave is no longer in effect. The government removed it on 1 April 2016. This means that the rules for adoptive parents getting extended leave have changed since then. If you want to know about the current rules for adoptive parents and extended leave, you’ll need to look at newer parts of the law.
