Consideration was given to the amendments to the Paternity Leave Scheme that had been made to comply with the changes to legislation in the Paternity Leave (Amendment) Regulations 2024.  It was noted that employees were now entitled to split their paternity leave into two week blocks and that the notice for each week of leave would be 28 days.

Some minor amendments were made to the wording of the policy.
