only 5?? lol

i have read about a quarter of the info re the new paid parental leave and the holes in it are horrid. it's going to be nasty to implement, people are going to lose out in ways they don't realise. as much as it's a theoretical step forward for Australia, the way the policy is written, it really isn't going to help as many people as they make out. even the examples they've put on FAO website i can pick holes in - they haven't outlined the numbers equally for the BB vs PPL examples! it's very obvious that the people making the policies don't actually NEED these payments to survive cos they have no idea how they impact on REAL people.
