The Social Security Contributions (Decisions and Appeals) (Amendment) Regulations 2020
Part 2, paragraphs 4 and 5 of the Schedule to the Parental Bereavement (Leave and Pay) Act 2018 (c. 24) (“the 2018 Act”) inserted a new Part 12ZD into the Social Security Contributions and Benefits Act 1992 (c. 4) (“the 1992 Act”). This created an entitlement to statutory parental bereavement pay. The 2018 Act does not apply or extend to Northern Ireland.
