I move amendment No. 5:

In page 4, between lines 17 and 18, to insert the following:“Amendment of section 27 of Principal Act

4. Section 27 of the Principal Act is amended by inserting the following subsection after subsection (2):

"(2A) Notwithstanding subsection (2), a record made under this section in respect of parental leave taken after the relevant day as defined in section 6(9) shall be retained by the employer for a period of 12 years or until the child in respect of whom the leave has been taken attains the age of 12 years, whichever is earliest.".".

This is a technical amendment.
