Parental Bereavement (Leave and Pay) Bill

Does my hon. Friend agree that the priority is that the provisions do not become a cliff edge, meaning that we do not have people’s 18th birthday as the absolute marker? Actually, when we read the Bill, we see that it could apply not only to someone under 18, as the parent of someone who dies on their 18th birthday

may end up qualifying. However, the issue is making sure that this age is seen as a bare minimum, not a ceiling.
