Summary:
The claimant was on maternity leave and was benefitting fully from this leave when she reconsidered her future and gave notice that she wished to change jobs. This change of employment resulted in certain remittances from her former employer for annual leave and other amounts. The Commission therefore allocated those amounts. The claimant would like her maternity leave benefits to be extended on the ground that she was incorrectly advised by Commission employees. The request is inconsistent with the Act. The appeal is dismissed by the Umpire.
