    Please tell me about the compensation award for unfair dismissal for 2011 examinations?

    and

    What are the hourly and weekly rates for Maternity leave and Paternity leave for 2011?

    Out of the top of my head, I think the basic and punitive awards are £350 statutory maximum per week, and £66,200 maximum compensatory award.

    I don’t know the maternity and paternity rates. Do we need to know those for the exam?

    the above rates have me puzzled …however based on checking in the BPP REVISION KIT……..Maximum rate per week is 380 Pounds and for Punitive award it is 66,200 pounds. An average of 97 pounds per week is paid to some1 on Maternity leave…..Paternity leave is UNPAID

    The above link is what direct gov says.
    Direct gov says from Feb 2011 it goes up to £400, from £380.
