Your eligibility to take SPL seems to depend on Mrs Quincy curtailing something; maternity pay, maternity leave or Maternity Allowance (if she qualifies for it).
You probably would need to nail down exactly what Mrs Quincy will curtail before chatting with your HR about SPL.
Disclaimer - I was curious and pasted your question in to ChatGPT, the above is a paraphrasing of its output.

Quincy
My partner is a contractor (outside IR35).
She's pregnant. She won't be eligible for/accessing any maternity benefits, as I understand it.
Am I (as a full-time, PAYE employee), entitled to the parental leave that she won't be accessing? i.e. could I take 9months parental leave, for example?
I've looked online and it seems a bit unclear.
I know the obvious answer is to ask HR, but I'd like to be a bit forarmed beforehand.
TIA
