Finland's woman-led government has today announced plans to give fathers the same amount of paid parental leave as mothers.

Paternity leave for new fathers is set to be extended to nearly seven months, the same as maternity leave.

The centre-left government led by Sanna Marin, the world's youngest prime minister at 34, says the 'radical reform' is intended to promote equality and boost birth rates.

'This enables better equality between parents and diversity among families,' said health minister Aino-Kaisa Pekonen.

Pekonen, the health minister, said a more equal distribution of domestic roles has been shown to reduce the risk of divorce.

'Over a longer term, it also improves equality in working life and in wages by directing fathers to use a larger proportion of parental leaves than before,' she said.
