PAID PARENTAL LEAVE ACT 2010 - SECT 277

  (1)   If:

  (a)   a claim is made for parental leave pay for a child; and

  (b)   before or after the claim is made, the child is stillborn or dies;

then this Act (other than sections   31AA and 47) applies as if a reference to the claimant caring for the child were a reference to the claimant caring for the child had the child not been stillborn or died.

Note:   Section   31AA deals with eligibility for parental leave pay and section   47 defines when a person is caring for a child.

  (2)   The PPL rules may modify the operation of subsection   (1).
