@HHumphreysFG @welfare_ie Is is true that the Parent benefit is not coming in until April 2021? Absolutely no good to mothers who had babies start of lockdown!! @Paschald @HHumphreysFG @LeoVaradkar @SimonHarrisTD @MichealMartinTD @matleave2020 @bridsmithTD @MaryLouMcDonald @mmcgrathtd

Important changes for workers in @welfare_ie budget ✅Parents Benefit extended to 5 weeks ✅Illness Benefit payable from day 3 if you are sick (down from 6) ✅€425 income limit for One Parent Family Payment removed ✅ €10 increase in Working Family Payment income threshold

@rodericogorman You have not listened to us at all Minister. 3 weeks parents leave but not being able to take it until April does NOT help families who had babies during lockdown and who can't get creche places for under 1s. Please reconsider this time frame, it's the least you can do
