Mrs. Liddell

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions how many people in Airdrie and Shotts have benefited from statutory paternity pay since its introduction. [140375]

I have been asked to reply.

Statutory paternity pay is a new entitlement for fathers whose babies were born or expected on or after 6 April 2003. There are no take up figures available yet.
