The Government has been strongly criticised for voting in favour of "burying" the recommendations of its own report on miscarriage leave.
This week, the Coalition voted to delay any further progress on a bill that would provide leave for those who suffer a miscarriage or who need to take time off work for fertility treatments such as IVF.
