The change to 2 years is supposed not be retropsective - those already in post on 5 April 2012 will still only need one year's service.

I thought it was retrospective, following previous precedent around such changes...has this been announced anywhere (so I can look it up!)?

This is the draft regs:

I can't post the link properly so this is the blurb from an Employment Law Bulletin:
In a nutshell, for all employees employed on or after 6th April 2012, the qualifying period for unfair dismissal (and requests a statement of reasons for dismissal) increases to two years. Employees whose period of continuous employment began on or before 5th April 2012 will still be subject to the one year qualifying period.
