  "text": "(This note is not part of the Regulations)\nThese Regulations provide an entitlement to statutory shared parental pay in respect of cases which involve a person who has applied with another person for a parental order under section 54 of the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Act 2008. Under that section a court may make an order providing for a child of a surrogate mother to be treated as the child of the applicants for the order if certain conditions are satisfied.\nThese Regulations should be read in conjunction with the Social Security Contributions and Benefits Act 1992 (Application of Parts 12ZA, 12ZB and 12ZC to Parental Order Cases) Regulations 2014 (S.I. 2014/ ). They should also be read in conjunction with the Statutory Shared Parental Pay (General) Regulations 2014 (S.I. 2014/ ) which they apply with modifications.\nA separate impact assessment has not been prepared for these Regulations. The Regulations are part of a package of legislative measures and the relevant impact assessment is the Modern Workplaces: shared parental leave and pay administration consultation impact assessment which was published in February 2013. A copy of that impact assessment can be obtained from the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills, Labour Market Directorate, I Victoria Street, London SW1H 0ET. Copies have also been placed in the libraries of both Houses of Parliament.",
