Voluntary Redundancy and Maternity Pay

Hi all

My employer is currently seeking people for voluntary redundancy. I'm 27 weeks pregnant and due to start maternity leave soon. Under my contract I'm entitled to occupational maternity pay. Would I lose the occupational maternity pay if I was to take voluntary redundancy, or was made redundant? And what would happen with SMP? Sorry for lack of detail at the moment but it is very early days. I know my statutory redundancy payment is 3 weeks. I will update with more details as I find out more.
Baby Mazza due New Years Day 2013!
