Possible end to paid parental leave on January 1st

[Lil Smurfy]

When it first hit the news last year, a lady at my work said she didn't think it was fair that we could access both. Then followed on by saying that she was glad her daughter in law's baby was due before the change would kick in (double standards much?)

I'm angry they are doing this now. Saying jan 1. Atleast change the start date to July 1 next year or something so pregnant ladies now don't have to stress out about this sudden change.
It better not change before July next yr and I will never vote liberal again. First the ppl was amazing that they said they would bring in and now completely opposite!! Aughhh

I'm praying they don't start in Jan... that's when my Bub is due!
