Petition Action

Extend maternity exemption certificate expiration date for births during covid.

Petition Details

During the pandemic dentist appointments have been close to impossible and many mothers have not benefited from their entitlements.
Please extend the expiration date of any such certificates for mothers who gave birth during 2021, 2020 and last semester of 2019.

Additional Information

I believe that many women have not benefited from their entitlements, although they needed, for example, non-urgent dental treatment for pregnancy related issues, and it wouldn't be fair for them to deprived from care because of the pandemic, instead allow extra time for them to benefit as well.
