Paternity Leave Question

Posts: 2 Newbie
Hi there, I'm wondering if someone can answer a question for me.
My fiance is due to give birth at the beginning of August and I have booked 2 weeks paternity leave (at full pay) with my current employer.
I have been invited for a interview with another company and what I wondering is that if I was to hand in my notice (4 weeks) to my current employer and the paternity leave fell within this notice period am I still entitled to my paternity leave?

Is it contractual or at the employers discretion?The Googlewhacker referance is to Dave Gorman and not to my opinion of the search engine!

I would have thought that as long as the word discretionary is not in the contract then it is a right for you even if it lands in the notice period.
