The two-week bereavement leave for parents who lose a child is to be extended.
The regulation originally applied to parents of children aged under 18, or those who suffered a stillbirth from 24 weeks of pregnancy, but the government recognises that the suffering is the same, whether the 'child' is 17 or 37.
As a result, Jacks Law (in memory of Jack Herd whose mother Lucy campaigned tirelessly on the issue) will apply from April to any working parents, no matter the age of their lost offspring.
