EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations, issued free of charge, amend the Additional Statutory Paternity Pay (General) Regulations 2010 (“the Principal Regulations”) to correct a drafting error in regulation 14 of those Regulations. The error concerns the date of the beginning of the additional statutory paternity pay period (adoption).

An impact assessment has not been prepared for these Regulations since they have the same effect on the costs to business and the voluntary sector as the Principal Regulations. A copy of the impact assessment for the Principal Regulations is available from the BIS website (www.bis.gov.uk) and is published with the Explanatory Memorandum alongside the principal Regulations on www.legislation.gov.uk.
