What to do with it
As published

41 Right to return after shared parental leave: supplementary

(1) For the purposes of regulation 40 a job is— (a) the nature of the work which the employee is employed to do under the contract of employment; and (b) the capacity and place the employee was employed in before the absence. (2) References in regulation 40 to the job in which the employee was employed before the absence are references to the job in which the employee was employed— (a) if the return is from an isolated period of shared parental leave, immediately before that period, or (b) if the return is from consecutive periods of leave provided for in Part 8 of the 1996 Act, immediately before the first such period. (3) The right to return under regulation 40 is a right to return— (a) with the employee’s seniority, pension rights and similar rights as they would have been if there had been no absence, and (b) on terms and conditions not less favourable than those which would have applied if there had been no absence. (4) In the case of accrual of rights under an employment-related benefit scheme within the meaning given by paragraph 7 of Schedule 5 to the Social Security Act 1989, nothing in paragraph (3)(a) above imposes a requirement which exceeds the requirements of paragraphs 5A to 6 of that Schedule.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

How this law is officially changed

Solon does not know this law's official route yet. The proposal is recorded all the same, and the route appears here once its source is added.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.
