Redundancy help!

Hi all!

My girlfriend was made redundant yesterday, they called all the employees into a room and told us to go home as the company was in administration. great.

Now the problem is, my girlfriend is 23 weeks pregnant, has already handed in her Matb1 form and is due on maternity leave on the first week of october-will she still get this? her "HR" rep said they are legally obliged to-but we cant risk this not being true?

also, they have said she "might get paid this months wages-dont know when" and "you will get redundancy pay-dont know when"
should she be accepting this?

Any help is welcome!
