Lobbying with MPs, and the Commissions, is done.
what are expecting mothers to be in Lebanon are waiting for is the amendment of the Maternity leave period in a general assembly.
Nabih Berri the speaker of the house has invited the Lebanese Parliament to a general assembly for monday July 1, Tuesday July 2 and wednesday July 3.
I hope that the Maternity leave law amendment for both LABOR LAW articles 28-29 , amending the Lebanese maternity leave from 49 days to 70 days will pass!!!
also, I hope that the maternity leave amendment for civil servants in Lebanon article 38 of law 112 will pass (amending it from 60 days to 70 days)….
I am looking forward for next week General assembly at the Parliament!!!!
