A landmark Supreme Court ruling means those providing full-time care for severely disabled family members are entitled to pay and other benefits.

It was brought by two parents, Christine Fleming and Peter Humphreys, who care for severely disabled adult children. 

Lawyer Paul Dale KC says parents in this position are now entitled to the legal benefits that come under the Employment Relations Act.
