Shake-up of parental leave planned

Parents will be able to share up to a year's leave to look after their newborn children under "radical" reforms set to be announced.

Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg said that from 2015 the UK will move to a new system of flexible parental leave as part of a huge shake-up of current arrangements. Under other changes, the right to request flexible working will be extended to all employees to encourage different work patterns for parents.
