The Paternity, Adoption and Shared Parental Leave (Parental Order Cases) Regulations 2014

These Regulations provide new rights to paternity and adoption leave, to curtail adoption leave and to shared parental leave in respect of cases which involve a person who has applied with another person for a parental order under section 54 of the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Act 2008 or intends to apply for such an order. Under this section a court may make an order providing for a child of a surrogate mother to be treated as the child of the applicants for the order if certain conditions are satisfied.
