Summary:
The Commission denied the claimant parental benefits because his spouse left with the child he was supposed to be caring for. The Umpire decided that the Board of Referees erred in law by not concluding that the person who requests and obtains parental leave must, for the duration of the leave period, have a child to take care of and for whom the leave was granted.

Summary:
This is not the place to discuss the philosophy of the legislation, but it has been held that maternity benefits are for the benefit of the health of the mother while parental benefits are for the benefit of the child: they allow the child to get used to the parent caring for her/him.
