    At the Monday group the question was asked if employers only had to provide facilities for safe expressing for six months. They don't! They must provide facilities for as long as you decide to breastfeed.

    "Regulations do not put a time limit on breastfeeding... It is
    for women themselves to decide for how long they wish to
    breastfeed." Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations, 1999 and
    Employment Rights Act, 2002

    There is a helpful leaflet here: http://www.healthscotland.com/uploads/documents/3383-Breastfeeding%20RTW.pdf all about breastfeeding at work.
